Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy for Exploration and Production
December 2 - December 5
Why Choose this Training Course
Sequence Stratigraphy is a method developed to support geoscientists in the geologic interpretation of subsurface data. The method can be applied to 2D and 3D seismic in all depositional environments. This seismic sequence stratigraphy training will review the basic terminology and definitions of surfaces, systems tracts, sequence sets, and stratigraphic hierarchy. The method will be described and applied to interpret subsurface data in nonmarine, shallow marine, and deep marine depositional settings. The emphasis of this seismic sequence stratigraphy training will be in the recognition and mapping of play elements from exploration to production scales.
Who Should Attend
Geophysicists, geologists, and managers who are interested in an introduction or review of the theory and application of contemporary seismic stratigraphic techniques to exploration and production.
Key Learning Objectives
- Interpret seismic lines in a sequence stratigraphic context
- Implement the method of sequence stratigraphy to define play, prospects and predict play elements presence and quality in seismic data
- Apply the concept of facies, facies stacking and shoreline trajectory to define parasequences, surfaces, and systems tracts
- Evaluate the main controls on depositional sequences
- Describe the accommodation Succession Method and Sequence Stratigraphy Hierarchy
- Apply the sequence stratigraphic method in non-marine, shallow marine and deep marine environments
