Abstract

When seismic data are available in production areas, it is often desirable to use them for stratigraphie interpretation to estimate the extent of existing reservoirs. Three-dimensional (3D) seismic data that contain the producing wells within their volume are particularly suitable for such an exercise. We present an interpretative processing procedure, supported by a case study, where surface and borehole data are used in cooperation to achieve maximum reliability of the final surface seismic inversion.
