WEB-AVO
The next-generation seismic reservoir characterisation technology
Page last modified
April 11 2024
Wave-Equation Based Amplitude Versus Offset (WEB-AVO) translates migrated seismic data into elastic reservoir models using a unique physical data model. It is the only AVO technology that properly accounts for multiples, mode conversions and transmission effects and in combination with its innovative parameterisation, it represents the high-tech seismic solution for risk reduction and return maximisation of Exploration & Production, geothermal but also CO2 storage projects.
Pros & Limitations
1
Three times more sensitive to hydrocarbon saturation and lithology changes when compared to conventional solutions
1
Most realistic AVO data model
1
Unique parameterisation, solving for compressibility and shear compliance
0
Computationally more expensive
