Joint Bayesian AVO and RMO inversion
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)Seismic amplitude variation with offset (AVO) has proved to be a useful technique in oil exploration. However, the sensitivity of AVO to residual move-out (RMO) is considered a severe limitation. Small misalignments between ... -
Salt tectonics on the Cod Terrace and Sørvestlandet High, Central North Sea
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-15)Four high- to moderate-quality 3D seismic surveys and public well data were used to define the structural framework and understand the Mesozoic and Cenozoic structural evolution of the salt diapirs on the Cod Terrace and ... -
Structural Analysis of Half-Graben Growth Strata Geometries, Gulf of Corinth, Greece
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-25)The Peloponnese peninsula in mainland Greece is a highly faulted region due to the active rift in the Gulf of Corinth. The rift is relatively recent and contains highly preserved structures and sediments, making it an ... -
Reservoir Modeling and Uncertainty Estimation: A Comparison Between Stochastic and Deterministic Inversion.
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IER/2019;, Master thesis, 2019-06-29)This study compares the uncertainty estimation based on both deterministic and stochastic inversion with the Gauss Simulation technique applied to modelling the distribution of limestone facies in a sand-shale reservoir. ... -
