Workshop Description
For seismic applications beyond the most basic structural imaging, data with both amplitude and phase fidelity are required. Achieving amplitude fidelity is particularly difficult in geological settings with complex overburdens and poor subsurface illumination, for example around salt bodies.
This workshop will examine the impact of acquisition, noise mitigation and imaging methods on amplitude fidelity. In addition, it will explore the successes and failures of seismic applications that rely on amplitude fidelity, for example as in the case of reservoir characterization.

Call for Abstracts
Call for Abstracts submission deadline: 28 February 2020
We invite abstracts for the following topics:
- Acquisition and instrumentation
- Pre-processing and noise mitigation
- Imaging and FWI
- Applications and case histories that use amplitudes
Abstract Format
Maximum two-page abstract including figures and references
Abstracts should be sufficiently detailed for the committee to judge the quality of the paper. Abstracts should be a minimum of one page and contain at least one figure. The maximum length is two pages. Abstracts should be on 8.5”x 11” paper, text in Roman font size 10 point, and include both text and any figures.
The title should be one or two lines, at the top of the page, in bold Roman font, size 12 point. Authors should be listed in Roman italic font, size 10 point and located just below the title. All text must stay one inch clear of the margins on all sides of the page. Submissions should be in Adobe Acrobat PDF format.
Presentations
All presentations for this workshop will be oral. The accepted abstracts will be posted and made available to workshop attendees. Each presentation will be 25 minutes long, followed by a 10- to 15-minute Q&A discussion. All speakers are required to register for the workshop.
