Seismic Data Analysis Techniques in Hydrocarbon Exploration

Seismic Data Analysis Techniques in Hydrocarbon Exploration explains the fundamental concepts and skills used to acquire seismic data in the oil industry and the step-by-step techniques used to extract the subsurface geological sections that trap hydrocarbons. It enhances the ability to interpret seismic data and use that data for basin evaluation, structural modeling of a fault, reservoir characterization, field development, and production studies.

Understanding and interpreting seismic data is critical to oil and gas exploration companies. Arming geoscientists with a reference that covers the key principles of seismic data analysis will enhance their job knowledge, skills and performance. A fundamental grasp of seismic data enhances employability and aids scientists in functioning effectively when working with seismic data in industry.

• Includes more than 200 figures, photographs, and illustrations whichaid in the understanding of the fundamental concepts and techniques used to acquire seismic data

• Takes an easy-to-follow, step-by-step approach to presenting the techniques and skills used to extract the geologic sections from acquired seismic data.

• Enhances the geoscientist s effectiveness when using seismic data for field development and other exploration and production studies
