About
15–17 May 2023
Muscat, Oman
Quantitative seismic interpretation (QI) plays a key role in geoscience within exploration, appraisal, and field development phases. Although QI workflows are of a common practice, many challenges remain to be tackled, as successful application of these techniques highly depend on the quality of input data and integration between different disciplines from seismic acquisition to dynamic modelling.
This workshop aims to discuss state-of-the art QI workflows, case studies, and recent advances. Special focus will be given to business value, acquisition and processing advances, and the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML). We welcome contributions on all general topics that constitute the broad range of quantitative interpretation.
