Course Objective

• Separate fact from artifact in seismic stratigraphy processing and interpretation
• Characterize reservoir rocks and their fluids from stacked and un-stacked (AVO) data
• Apply 3-D seismic stratigraphy to field development
• Interpret salt structures and their associated hydrocarbon potential
• Predict intra-basin reservoir and seal quality as a function of sea level positioning
• Generate seismic stratigraphy regional play concepts for a variety of tectonic-depositional settings

Who Can Benefit

• Geophysicists, geologists, and explorationists who have completed Introduction to Seismic Stratigraphy: An Exploration Workshop, or have comparable training and desire a challenging workshop, which will improve exploration and development skills
