Short Note Velocity analysis of the Mobil AVO dataset
نویسندگان
چکیده
In our last SEP report, we introduced an AVO dataset consisting of seismic, petrophysical and well-log information which was provided by Mobil as part of an AVO workshop (?). The prestack seismic data are heavily contaminated by free-surface and water-bottom multiple reflections, and thus represent a challenge for true-amplitude processing. We described our preliminary preprocessing work and discussed model-building and synthetic seismograms that we planned to use to test our true-amplitude processing methods. Furthermore, we gave a brief overview of our plans for AVO analysis and impedance inversion.

Estimation of AVO attributes sensitivity to velocity uncertainty using forward modeling: a progress report
We investigate the sensitivity of AVO attributes to uncertainty in migration velocity in a synthetic dataset. The synthetic data was built using a earth model with typical rock properties from a real North Sea turbidite field. The model includes a thick overburden layer with complex velocity anomalies. We examine the sensitivity of AVO response due to the presence of this complex layer and quan...
متن کاملSeismic attribute sensitivity to velocity uncertainty
This paper explores the relationship between velocity uncertainty and AVO-related seismic attributes in a dataset from the Blake Outer Ridge, offshore from Florida and Georgia. From an initial velocity model, several realizations were generated that are perturbations of the original velocity model. Prestack wave-equation migration was applied to the data for each velocity realization. In the mi...
متن کاملExploring the relationship between uncertainty of AVA attributes and rock information
Amplitude versus Angle (AVA) attributes include information about rock properties. Using a dataset from South America, we performed a multiple realization method to get multiple equal-probable AVA intercepts, gradients, and their products. We generated a 3D histogram to evaluate the variability of those AVA attributes. In the same area, we chose a 2-D section by matching it to three wells. Then...

متن کاملIdentification of Gas Accumulation Adjacent to the Gas Hydrate Bearing Zone by Inversion Utilizing AVO Attribute
The presence of gas hydrate and associated gas in the Makran Accretionary Prism, offshore Iran, has been confirmed by various seismic indicators, including the bottom-simulating reflector (BSR), amplitude blanking, and bright spot. The pre-stack analysis and the study of amplitude-variation-with-offset (AVO) attributes are the most reliable tools for semi-quantitative study of gas hydrate and f...
