Acquisition design plays a very significant role in seismic exploration and data processing. An optimized seismic acquisition design will require less resources and therefore, it can reduce the total cost of seismic exploration. Nevertheless, finding the optimal locations of sources and receivers in a seismic survey is a long-standing problem which has received less attraction in last few decad...

Oil and gas exploration decisions are made based on inferences obtained from seismic data interpretation. While 3D seismic data become widespread and the data-sets get larger, the demand for automation to speed up the seismic interpretation process is increasing as well. However, the development of intelligent tools which can do more to assist interpreters has been difficult due to low informat...

this paper is devoted to compiling a site geology map for town of amiriyeh, from seismic macro-zonation point of view using geophysical methods of shallow seismic, down-hole seismic and resistivity surveys. in this map site geology has been classified based on shear wave velocity, according to the criteria for site geology classification offered in the iranian code of practice for seismic resis...

Data delivered today over the web reflects rapid and unpredictable changes in the world around us. We are increasingly relying on content that provides dynamic, interactive, personalized experiences. To achieve this, the content of most web pages is created dynamically, by executing queries dynamically, using data that changes dynamically from distributed sources identified dynamically. A typic...

effective approach to defining additional resources using 3-D seismic as the sole data source. Although this example is from a densely drilled province, such a seismic-based approach is often used in frontier areas with sparse well coverage, in step-out regions around known production, can be used for a “quick look” evaluation of existing properties, and for real-time interpretation of newly ac...

In this paper we show the implementation of bilinear time-frequency representations in the interpretation of seismic data. In seismic stratigraphy the reeection patterns in seismic data are interpreted in terms of subsurface stratiication and lithological properties. The time-frequency representation clearly elicits seismic reeection patterns and can thus provide useful information on subsurfac...

Accurate and automated locations of microseismic events are desirable for many seismological and industrial applications. The analysis of microseismicity is particularly challenging because of weak seismic signals with low signal-to-noise ratio. Traditional location approaches rely on automated picking, based on individual seismograms, and make no use of the coherency information between signal...
