Seismic Processing Advances for Reservoir Characterization Workshop
Event Details
Due to the ongoing global health concerns of the COVID-19 virus, the ‘Seismic Processing Advances for Reservoir Characterization Workshop’ is rescheduled to 29 –31 March 2021. We appreciate your continued support and understanding. Please do not hesitate to email Hyra Dalisay for any further questions.
Seismic data plays a crucial role in reservoir characterization. At the basic level, it can be used to map the geological structures away from wells. In addition, quantitative seismic reservoir characterization workflows aim to extract reservoir properties from seismic data to identify sweet spots for exploration and appraisal drilling, and to populate static and dynamic models to optimize development and production.
The extraction of reservoir properties from seismic data typically puts higher demands on amplitude fidelity, resolution, and bandwidth compared with structural interpretation. In an onshore setting, this adds to the existing complexities of processing land data. This is all the more true if the data is to be used in 4D for reservoir monitoring. An enhanced understanding of the reservoir facilitates better business decisions, for example targeting exploration wells with higher probability of success and optimizing field development plans.
The workshop will emphasize advances in seismic processing, conditioning, quantitative interpretation, and machine learning to satisfy the demands of reservoir characterization and monitoring. Case studies describing successes and lessons learned are particularly encouraged.

Who should attend?
We aim to promote dialogue between geoscientists involved in seismic processing, imaging, reservoir characterization, and monitoring, and engineers using their products for development and production. Hence, we invite all of these groups to participate in this workshop from both industry and academia.
Workshop format
The workshop will include not only general submissions but also feature presentations by invited experts in their field to share experiences and lessons learned.
The three-day workshop will have a morning and an afternoon session. We will aim for one keynote speaker per session. Each session consists of 25-minute oral presentations including Q&A followed by a 30-minute moderated discussion between the speakers and the audience. The objective is to maximize the discussion opportunity between participants, debate any issues and challenges in application of the workflows, and identify open issues. The session chairmen will serve as moderators during the discussions.
