Learning Outcomes
The basic principles of the interpretation of two- and three-dimensional seismic lines from a variety of geological-tectonic environments are presented. At a second stage the interpreted sections are used to construct three-dimensional models of the subsurface and these models are evaluated in view of crude oil and natural gas bearing structures.
General Competences
- Apply knowledge in practice
- Retrieve, analyse and synthesise data and information, with the use of necessary technologies
- Adapt to new situations
- Work autonomously
Course Content (Syllabus)
The course includes: the basic principles of seismic data interpretation, simulations, synthetic data, seismic ray tracing methods, the seismic forward and inverse problem, inversion methods, adjusting seismic data interpretation on the basis of the different processing used, identification of common basic stratigraphic and tectonic structures in the Mediterranean, the estimation of the oil potential of an area based on interpretations as well as extensive practice with real seismic lines.
