Abstract

Primary goals of seismic investigations are typically direct hydrocarbon detection, characterization of reservoirs, and monitoring of recovery processes. Understanding the behavior of rocks with varying pore fluids and under changing stress conditions is a fundamental step in performing a valid interpretation. Basic petrophysical calibration is crucial, particularly in seismic monitoring (also known as time-lapse or 4-D), otherwise colorful images remain unconnected to their true engineering significance.
