The mCSEM modelling is usually done in the frequency domain, from its theoretical formulation to the analysis of the results. However, the time domain approach is, in principle, capable of providing equivalent information about the geo-electric structure of the subsurface. In this work, we model frequency domain mCSEM data in 1-D environments, then we perform the discrete Fourier transform to obtain time domain results. We simulated marine geological environments with and without the resistive layer that represents the hydrocarbon reservoir. We verified that the time domain data are significantly different when calculated for models with and without hydrocarbons in almost all model configurations. We calculated the results considering variations in the sea depth, in the position of the receivers and in the resistivity of the hydrocarbon layer. We observed the influence of the airwave, even at sea depths greater than 1000m, and although a simple separation of this influence on data is not possible, the time domain allowed us to do an analysis of its effects on the survey. As part of the preparation for the 2-D and 3-D modelling, we also have studied the gain in performance from the use of parallel processing in our task.

Modelagem eletromagnética 2.5-D de dados geofísicos através do método de diferenças finitas com malhas não-estruturadas
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-10-23) MIRANDA, Diego da Costa; RÉGIS, Cícero Roberto Teixeira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7340569532034401; HOWARD JUNIOR, Allen Quentin; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6447166738854045
We present a 2.5D electromagnetic formulation for modelling of the marine controlledsource electromagnetic (mCSEM) using a Finite Diference frequency domain (FDFD) method. The formulation is in terms of secondary fields thus removing the source point singularities. The components of the electromagnetic field are derived from the solution of the magnetic vector potential and electric scalar potential, evaluated in the entire problem domain that must be completely discretized for the use of the FDFD. Finite difference methods result in large sparse matrix equations that are efficiently solved by sparse matrix algebra preconditioned iterative methods. To overcome limitations imposed by structured grids in the traditional FDFD method, the new method is based upon unstructured grids allowing a better delineation of the geometries. These meshes are completely adaptable to the models we work with, promoting a smooth design of their structures, and may only be refined locally in regions of interest. We also present the development of RBF-DQ method, (radial basis function differential quadrature) which makes use of the technique of functions approximation by linear combinations of radial basis functions (RBF) and the technique of differential quadrature (DQ) for approximation of the derivatives. Our results show that the FDFD method with unstructured grids when applied to geophysical modeling problems, yield improved quality of modeled data in comparison with the results obtained by traditional techniques of FDFD method.
