Pitfall Of Seismic Imaging (Advanced Seismic Processing & Interpretation)

The course provides the participants with professional practical information in addition to understanding the theory. The materials will cover the most updated and recent techniques used in the industry. The course will start with the seismic acquisition, setting, and parameters and how they can affect the image later and what are the key elements that might cause errors in the image, ending the 1st day with an introduction to migration theory.

Day 2 will go deeper into the migration theory and its application in the form of PSTM/PSDM where we are going to understand how to run and QC the migrations also the difference between PSTM and PSDM. From this point we will start to run the sequence in the reverse direction, focusing on the key steps in the sequence that has a great impact on the image.

Finally, the course ends up with covering the interpretation part through understanding the AVO & AVA in theory and practice.
