Introduction and Philosophy
This chapter focuses on the techniques employed in the interpretation and structure mapping of 3D seismic data on a workstation. The focus is on unconventional reservoirs with examples from the Eagle Ford, Wolfcamp, Marcellus, and Haynesville plays and shows how a principled approach to 3D interpretation applies in all geological settings. Space does not allow this chapter to be a comprehensive work on all aspects of seismic interpretation, but it ...
