Seismic interpretation

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003311

The process of analyzing seismic data to understand the subsurface geology, identify geological structures, and locate potential hydrocarbon reservoirs. It involves mapping horizons, faults, and other features from seismic sections. This process often integrates well log data and geological models to refine the subsurface understanding.
