Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-004210

Seismic reflections or other geophysical phenomena that do not conform to expected patterns or models, often indicating geological complexities or noise. These events can include multiples, diffractions, or coherent noise that obscure primary reflections. Careful processing and interpretation are required to distinguish them from true subsurface features.
