Fractal Behaviour of Fractures Derived from Seismic and FMI Data - A Case Study in a Tight Gas Area

The results of this study were obtained from an area in the North German Basin (NGB) located east of Bremen, Germany, where gas is produced from a deep Rotliegend sandstone reservoir. Faults and fractures play a major role in gas productivity. The deformations could have a negative influence on the productivity of the gas field as fractures are cemented and tight and may act as permeability barriers.
