this paper describes a methodology for the integration of well logs and a series of grid-based attributes extracted from interpreted seismic data for prediction of porosity distributions. the studied area is located in the southwest iran. before finding a relationship between the target logs and predicted logs from 3d seismic data, we have interpreted the 3d seismic data in the studied area. al...

This paper gives an account of the R/S statistic and its known properties. I t assesses the adequacy of the asymptotic distribution of the statistic in the case of samples of small and moderate size, and suggests an improved approximation based on the beta distribution. The results indicate that the proposed beta approximation is superior to the asymptotic distribution for practical purposes. H...
