Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001941

A visual representation of subsurface geological structures derived from processed seismic data, often displayed as a 2D cross-section or a 3D volume. These images are created by migrating seismic reflections to their true subsurface positions, correcting for wave propagation paths. Interpreters analyze these images to identify potential hydrocarbon traps and reservoir characteristics.
