Description
Summary:The thesis is focused on the evaluation of distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) technique applied to seismic imaging and monitoring of CO2 geosequestration. It utilises the data acquired at the CO2CRC Otway site (Victoria) and the National Geosequestration Laboratory (Western Australia) to explore capabilities of the sensing technique, optimise data acquisition and processing, and compare it to other seismic sensors. Surface and downhole acquisition geometries and a range of fibre optic cables and deployment techniques were considered.
