4-D: The Exotic Getting Familiar

It was not so long ago that time lapse, or 4-D, seismic was a technology that kind of hovered in the background, being applied only in specific situations, such as when a reservoir began producing erratically rather than as predicted.

Reflections Have a 'Tipper Point'

A fundamental premise of seismic stratigraphy is that seismic reflections follow chronostratigraphic surfaces, not lithostratigraphic surfaces. In 1993, Tipper published an intriguing paper which posed the following question: “Do seismic reflection events necessarily follow chronostratigraphic surfaces?”.

Data Gatherers Meet the Beetles

Acquiring all the necessary permits from various governmental agencies to conduct a seismic data acquisition program can be a particularly time consuming, expensive and tedious process. Once the permits are in hand, considerably more time and money is expended in implementing the appropriate procedures in the field -- particularly when it comes to protecting any endangered species that reside (or are thought to reside) in the area to be surveyed.

VG Abstract By Fred Schroeder

Basics of Prospecting

The following short course option was developed for geology and geophysics students that have not had much exposure to how geoscience is applied in industry. It can be tailored for undergraduate juniors and seniors or graduate students. The agenda can be modified to meet specific needs and time constraints. Contact the presenter to discuss options.

VG Abstract By Juan I. Soto

Salt versus Shales in Continental Margins and Orogens

In comparison with the known boundary conditions that promote salt deformation and flow in sedimentary basins, the processes involved with the mobilization of clay-rich detrital sediments are far less well established. This talk will use seismic examples in different tectonic settings to document the variety of shale geometries that can be formed under brittle and ductile deformations.
