Petro Shine The Place for Oil and Gas Professionals.
Seismic Interpretation is the extraction of subsurface geologic information from seismic data. On that definition we all are agreed. However, if we seek a more penetrating explanation, we find practitioners get tongue-tied and talk around the subject in a variety of ways.

Seismic Methods
Seismic methods are based on the study of elastic wave propagation inside the earth. These waves are generated by explosions on the earth's surface (in seismic exploration), or by seismic sources in the earth's crust (in seismology).

Mathematical Basin Analysis Models
Mathematical basin analysis models are mathematical representations of physical processes that occur in sedimentary basins. These models are used to simulate the behavior of sedimentary systems, including the transport, deposition, and erosion of sediment, and to predict the distribution and character of sedimentary rocks. Introduction To Mathematical Basin Analysis Models …

Basin Histories and Properties
Basin histories and properties are the geological characteristics and evolutionary processes that shape sedimentary basins. Understanding the history and properties of a basin is important for predicting the distribution and quality of hydrocarbon reservoirs and for developing exploration and production strategies. Time and Events in Basin History Even though it …

Sedimentary Basin Models
Stratigraphy now incorporates many topics normally assigned to other subdisciplines within the earth sciences, and we are in the midst of an evolution of stratigraphic analysis termed quantitative dynamic stratigraphy. In quantitative dynamic stratigraphy (QDS) ...

Maturation Processes
Maturation processes refer to the natural physical and chemical changes that occur in organic matter over time as it is buried deeper and subjected to higher temperatures and pressures. These processes are important in petroleum geology because they can lead to the formation of hydrocarbons (oil and gas) from organic-rich …
