Abstract:

Seismic geomorphology is a newly developed interdisciplinary. It uses amplitude attribute extracted from 3D seismic data and 3D visualization images to study subsurface geology. This discipline, together with seismic lithology, composes the main parts of seismic sedimentology. The current developing status of this discipline is discussed, and a set of available work flow is proposed. Several techniques are applied in the study to carry out the imaging and visualization for depositional elements and geologic features, including slicing technique, seismic attributes analysis technique, coherence technique and 3D visualization technique. With the widespread application of high resolution 3D seismic data, seismic geomorphology will be developed rapidly.

Key words: sand lens, lithologic reservoirs, modelling, fluid potential, main controlling factors
