Synopsis

Thirty profusely illustrated case studies from around the world demonstrate the latest practical applications of 3-dimensional seismic data. This book covers fluvial-deltaic, eolian, deep-water clastic, carbonate, and structural reservoirs. Special emphasis is placed on the application of 3-D data to development drilling, reservoir characterization, and reservoir management. This atlas is designed to confirm 3-D seismic interpretation in drilling and production--for despite its great impact on the geosciences community, relatively few published case histories have documented 3-D's importance. This book fills that gap.

About this title

Review

'Hydrocarbon geologists will naturally find [the book] useful, but geoscientists in other areas of application ... and university-based geoscientists should also find it illuminating.' --T. Elliot, Geological Magazine, May 1997
