Seismic Processing II

This document appears to be lecture slides from a geology course on seismic data processing and interpretation. It covers various topics including combining seismic and well data on workstations, charts used in seismic stratigraphy, velocity terms used in seismic interpretation, vertical seismic profiling to tie time to depth and measure the seismic wavelet, before-stack depth migration used to image salt domes, and principles of seismic data processing from a reference by Oz Yilmaz. Diagrams and images are included to illustrate seismic concepts and examples.

MODELING SALT DOMES


BEFORE-STACK DEPTH MIGRATION Becoming commonplace in the business is before-stack depth migration. Here this methodology is being used for a Gulf-coast salt dome image to increase accuracy of the final interpretation.
