Title: Gwenola Michaud: Innovator in Microseismic Mapping

Introduction

Gwenola Michaud is a prominent inventor based in Milan, Italy. She has made significant contributions to the field of microseismic mapping, with a focus on real-time detection and localization of microseismic events. Her innovative approaches have led to the development of two notable patents.

Latest Patents

Gwenola Michaud holds 2 patents that showcase her expertise in microseismic technology. The first patent is titled "Methods and systems for microseismic mapping." This invention proposes methods and systems for the detection and localization of microseismic events that operate in real-time. It provides hypocenters in three spatial dimensions along with an estimate of the event origin time. The sensor positions may be distributed in 3D space, and are not confined to linear arrays in vertical wells. The location of the event is approximated, and a grid search based on this approximate location is used to derive a residual function over a finer sampling, followed by a gradient search of the residual function to optimize the location of the event.

The second patent is titled "Continuous microseismic mapping for real-time 3D event detection and location." This method also operates in real-time and provides hypocenters in three spatial dimensions along with an estimate of the event origin time. Similar to her first patent, sensor positions may be distributed in 3D space. This method combines and improves two existing approaches, utilizing the generalized beam-forming and forward modeling properties defined in the 'CMM' algorithm for detection and localization purposes. For location refinement, it employs a stabilized version of the generalized 'Geiger' approach.
