The practice and theory of depth imaging technology
The technology used in the exploration industry for depth imaging is evolving rapidly and the correct use of this new technology is not always straightforward. As the tools for model building and depth imaging become more sophisticated, they depend more and more on the accuracy and complexity of the geological models constructed and on the quality of the input seismic data.
How can we make the correct decisions concerning the tools to use at each step of a model building and depth imaging project ?
We achieve this by (i) understanding the objective of each step of the workflow used, (ii) knowing the theoretical basis of each tool used for the imaging and velocity estimation, and (iii) being aware of both theoretical and practical limitations of the algorithms and workflows.
These key items will be covered in detail in the upcoming depth imaging course in London presented by SeismicCity and Rock Solid Images.
