George King is a technology provider in the oil and gas industry specializing in new technology and problem oil well solutions.
Secondary wave, shear wave, transverse wave. A seismic body wave that involves particle motion from side to side, perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. S-waves are slower than P-waves and cannot travel through liquid.
Industry:Oil & gas
Securing a well such that the well is not capable of flowing hydrocarbons to surface.
Industry:Oil & gas
Sediment formed by precipitation from water, e.g., salt from dehydration and scales.
Industry:Oil & gas
Sedimentary rock, often highly naturally fractured, composed of thermally modified plant remains.
Industry:Oil & gas
Sedimentary rocks not composed of fragments of pre-existing rocks or minerals. Usually called crystalline.
Industry:Oil & gas
Sedimentary rocks that consist of particles finer than sand grade (less than 0.0625 mm) and include both silt and clay grade material. Also called shales.
Industry:Oil & gas
see EOP or extreme overbalanced perforating.
Industry:Oil & gas
Segregated flow units of a main reservoir that have a poor flow connection or no flow connection to the main reservoir.
Industry:Oil & gas
Seismic data capable of showing a three dimensional image of the reservoir. Strictly, 3-D is a closely spaced grid of 2-D seismic lines with interpolation to create a seismic cube. The cube can be sliced vertically to create 2-D lines or sliced horizontally to create time views of the traveling signal.
