Pitfall Of Seismic Imaging (Advanced Seismic Processing & Interpretation)
The Pitfall Of Seismic Imaging course is an advanced seismic processing and interpretation course that focuses on identifying the potential pitfalls of seismic imaging and interpretation in the oil and gas industry. The course covers various topics, including data acquisition, processing, and interpretation techniques used in seismic imaging. You will learn about the common challenges faced during seismic imaging, such as signal attenuation, imaging artifacts, and velocity uncertainty. You will also learn about advanced processing techniques, such as full-waveform inversion and migration velocity analysis, which can help improve the accuracy of seismic imaging.
Description
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.
