Seismic Depth Interpretation in Thrustbelts

A big challenge for modern seismic is the ability to image complicated structures. Fold and thrustbelts are characterized by rapid velocity variations due to juxtaposed rock types.

Mini-Seismic for the 'Rosetta Stone'

Honey, I shrunk the … vibroseis truck? Robert Stewart, a professor of geophysics at the University of Calgary (Canada), is the alter ego of the fictional movie scientist who accidentally shrinks his kids in an experiment that goes terribly wrong.

Commercially Speaking: How Much Gas Is There?

The Jonah Field in the northern Greater Green River Basin, one of the largest gas discoveries in the last decade and a poster child for basin centered gas. The Standard Draw-Echo Springs Field in the Washakie Basin, which was found in the 1970s and was one of the original fields determined to be a large, basin centered gas accumulation.

Risk? Mindset Change Required

Thanks to stubbornly-high commodity prices, record profits are being rung up at a host of oil and gas firms. For the most part they're using the accruing volumes of cash to pay down debt and spruce up their financial standing in general.

Acquisition Footprint Can Confuse

Any 3-D seismic survey can have an acquisition footprint. Our problem is to determine whether we have one -- and if so, whether we can recognize it, how severe it is and, most importantly, what we can do about it.

The Use of Seismic Data in Industry

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.

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.
