Abstract: Methods and systems for investigating subterranean formations are disclosed. A method for extracting geological horizon on-demand from a 3D seismic data set, comprises collecting 3D seismic data and generating 3D seismic extrema cubes; obtaining a user-defined seed point in the 3D seismic data set; determining a starting extrema point for extracting the geological horizon, wherein the starting extrema point is associated with the seed point; growing an extrema patch consisting of multiple extrema points from multiple traces, wherein the growth begins from the starting extrema point; capturing statistics of the growing extrema patch; and outputting the extrema patch as the geological horizon, including spatial and attribute statistics.

Abstract: Methods and systems for investigating subterranean formations are disclosed. A method for investigating subterranean formations includes obtaining formation property data for a volume of interest in the subterranean formation s; presenting the formation property data as a collection of objects in a three-dimensional volume that represents the volume of interest; filtering the collection of objects based on proximity to a reference point and a selected property associated with a subset of the collection of objects; and displaying objects that satisfy the proximity to the reference point and the selected property.
