Structural geometries are distorted on seismic-reflection profiles. These distortions can obscure critical structural relationships and, consequently, can affect tectonic interpretations and hydrocarbon exploration and production strategies. during this course, you will interpret several synthetic time-migrated seismic profiles. The synthetic profiles are seismic models of geologic cross sections representative of several structural styles.
Comparisons of your seismic interpretations with the geologic cross sections will reveal the seismic characteristics and interpretational pitfalls for each structural style. The recognition and accurate delineation of structural traps on seismic data depend on the application of this knowledge together with structural concepts and seismic modeling.
NOTE: This short course can be bought as a package with the AAPG/SEPM Student Field Trip for only $50.
