by European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, Hilterman, Fred J., Distinguished Instructor Short Course, Tulsa, Okla, Society of Exploration Geophysicists, Distinguished Instructor Short Course, Tulsa, Okla
fromDistinguished Instructor Series
Hilterman reviews the relationships between rock properties and geophysical observations. Practical problems illustrate the assumptions and limitations of commonly used empirical transforms, and procedures for conducting and verifying fluid-substitution techniques are presented.
During the last 30 years, seismic interpreters have routinely applied bright spot and AVO technology for recognizing prospects and predicting lithology. New amplitude attributes were added to this technology as new exploration problems were defined. R & D continues in the field …
