Richard Cooper, President & CEO, Rock Solid Images
Overview:
Seismic attributes play a major role in helping geoscientists interpret seismic data by quantifying and revealing information that help define the geology and rock physics of prospects.
We see three converging technology trends that define "the future of seismic attributes":
1. The development of next generation seismic attribute algorithms, which more closely link attribute response to stratigraphy and reservoir properties.
2. The incredible advances in computer price/performance that allow 3D attribute calculation and visualization to be undertaken even on a laptop.
3. The availability of state-of-the-art cost effective and easy to use scalable software tools that exploit these new algorithms and computer platforms.
Each of these trends and their future directions will be discussed.
