3-D sequence interpretation of seismic instantaneous attributes from the Gorgon Field

Abstract

Michaelangelo once described the act of sculpting as simply freeing the form he saw locked inside a block of marble. Increasingly, geoscientists are viewing their interpretation work with 3-D seismic data volumes in somewhat the same manner. So much information is locked inside our data, we have only to free it with the right tools. A profusion of seismic attributes has been defined in the past decade, challenging the intrepid interpreter with many problems; foremost is understanding what these attributes mean as well as working efficiently with multiple displays of the same data volume.
