Abstract
New visualization technology allows 3-D seismic interpreters to rapidly analyze enormous data volumes by tapping the mind's eye. Along with this technology come new techniques that take advantage of the visualization breakthroughs. Workstation and paper-section techniques used before 3-D visualization required laborious, time-consuming, line-by-line interpretation. This is no longer cost-effective. True volume interpretation, which does not rely on the creation of maps and/or cross-sections, is the next logical step to finding more reserves with fewer wells.
