Abstract: Stratigraphic Exploration with Seislog Method

Roy O. Lindseth, R. D. McLeay

Wide-band modern seismic data can be processed beyond the conventional sequence to produce an approximation of the sonic borehole log. The derived logs, termed Seislogs^TM, correlate well with actual borehole logs. They provide much of the same information as the sonic log, yet require no borehole. The principal application has been in stratigraphic exploration where, as several examples demonstrate, it has proved to be very effective at delineating facies changes, thin reservoirs, and estimating lithology in areas of no control.
