N254 Geological Interpretation of 3D Seismic Data
N254 Geological Interpretation of 3D Seismic Data
This course raises the quality of geological thinking using the medium of 3D seismic data. It enables seismic interpreters to improve their seismic interpretation skills through a better understanding of the nature and limitations of seismic data. It describes modern techniques for eliciting structural and stratigraphic information from those such and includes many examples of seismic data in a variety of geologic settings.
A five-day classroom course with lecture sessions that will include many real data examples supplemented by hands-on practical exercises working with paper seismic sections.
Participants will learn to:
This course is designed to be a practical introduction to the interpretation of 3D seismic data using sound geologic principles and includes many real data examples to illustrate the principles of seismic interpretation.
Day 1: Introduction
Day 2: Stratigraphic methods
Day 3: Reconstructing past geological history and structural evolution
- Significance of unconformities
- Structural Interpretation
Day 4: Structural Evolution contd.
3D seismic interpretation Case Studies
Day 5: Case Studies cont’d
Graduate-level geophysicists and more experienced subsurface professionals from other disciplines (geology, reservoir engineering) who require of a working knowledge of seismic interpretation techniques.
There are no prerequisites for this course, however for those with little or no prior knowledge of the seismic method either N085 (Introduction to Seismic Interpretation) or N080 (Geophysics for Sub-Surface Professionals) or is recommended as a precursor. N085 is designed for those with a Geoscience background, while N080 may appeal more to Engineers. N160 (Seismic Interpretation of Structural Styles: A Workshop for Petroleum Geoscientists) may appeal to those with an interest in structural geology and seismic interpretation.
