Seismic interpretation using global image segmentation
نویسنده
چکیده
An important step in seismic interpretation is segmentation of a seismic image into structural and stratigraphic geologic units. Today, we often perform this segmentation using a simple process. We first automatically track seismic events to locate horizons and faults that correspond to the boundaries of geologic units. We then glue those boundaries together to obtain a geologic model. This process is equivalent to segmentation of a seismic image.

Self-Organizing Maps in Seismic Image Segmentation
Unsupervised neural networks such as the Kohonen Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) have been widely used for searching natural clusters in multidimensional and massive data. One example where the data available for analysis can be extremely large is seismic interpretation for hydrocarbon exploration. In order to assist the interpreter in identifying characteristics of interest confined in the seismic ...
متن کاملAnalyzing the Illumination and Resolution in Seismic Survey Designing
Seismic modeling aids the geophysicists to have a better understanding of the subsurface image before the seismic acquisition, processing, and interpretation. In this regard, seismic survey modeling is employed to make a model close to the real structure and to obtain very realistic synthetic seismic data. The objective of this study is to analyze the resolution and illumination of the fault by...
متن کاملA texture-based approach to the segmentation of seismic images
-A new method is presented for the texture analysis and segmentation of seismic images. The texture of a seismic image is described in terms either of seismic horizons' features (e.g. length, reflection strength, geometrical appearance), or in terms of Hilbert transform features (magnitude, phase, instantaneous frequency) or in terms of features related to the generalized runs. Seismic image se...
