About this Training Course
Seismic interpretation requires an understanding of structural development and its interrelation with the stratigraphic system. Bias and misunderstanding have unfortunately resulted in countless dry holes. So go beyond tracing horizons and understand their context within the structural system by extracting key information from seismic surveys and other datasets.
In this 5 full-day training course, participants will learn a variety of modern structural concepts and techniques and their role in the interpretation of seismic data. Using an applied “hands-on” approach, participants will be exposed to a diversity of worldwide case examples with complementary exercises – both of an individual and group nature.
The course is designed from an applied standpoint, with numerous examples and hands-on exercises from the petroleum industry.
This course can also be offered through Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) format.
By the end of this course, the participants will be able to:
- Go beyond tracing horizons and marking faults and truly understand the structural and stratigraphic system.
- Understand the role of tectonics and deformation in the formation of various types and orientations of geologic structures.
- Understand the interaction of the structural system with the stratigraphic and sedimentologic environment for better prediction of reservoir formation.
- Integrate data from the large seismic scale to subseismic scale, including seismic anisotropy, to understand better the overall petroleum system.
- Learn about the common pitfalls of interpretation.
This course is intended for geologists, geophysicists, reservoir engineers, and exploration/production managers.
- Intermediate
This course uses an applied, hands-on learning approach that blends lectures with guided seismic interpretation exercises, group problem-solving, and real-world case studies from diverse structural settings. Participants will work directly with seismic data, structural models, and attribute analyses to reinforce key concepts. Interactive discussions, daily practical assignments, and integrative workflows ensure that learners gain both conceptual understanding and practical interpretation skills.
