  • Publication number: 20060041383
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for locally determining a profile of geological horizons comprising a step (100) which consists in digital modelling with continuous local seismic traces, calculating an optimal offset and defining a conditional neighbourhood of a reference central continuous local seismic trace; a step (101) which consists in defining residuals relative to said reference central continuous local seismic trace; a third step (102) which consists in minimizing the set of residuals on said conditional neighbourhood and a fourth step (103) which consists in determining parametric coefficients corresponding to the minimization of the set of residuals on the conditional neighbourhood carried out at step (102).

  • Publication number: 20050222774
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for smoothing a subsurface property in a geological structure represented by seismic measurements comprising a step (100) which consists in digital modelling by continuous local seismic traces, calculating an optimal offset and defining a conditional neighbourhood of a reference central continuous local seismic trace; a step (101) which consists in selecting the property to be smoothed on a conditional neighbourhood; a third step (102) which consists in substituting properties of the conditional neighbourhood with offset properties; and a fourth step (103) which consists in selecting an average of the properties offset on the conditional neighbourhood at step (102).
