SSB
|
Seismic Spectral Blueing (built using Qt®)
Shapes
spectra of seismic data to be consistent with the Earth's reflectivity.
 |
Provides a globally optimised spectral shaping of
2D/3D seismic data to be consistent with observed Earth's reflectivity. |
|
 |
Seamlessly
integrated with existing seismic interpretation systems and allows
Interpretation Geophysicists to gain access to blueing techniques. |
 |
Rapid,
robust, inexpensive and eliminates the need for expert users. |
 |
Normalisation
allows the relative amplitude changes observed in the blued volumes to
be interpreted quantitatively. |
 |
SSB
can assist in the interpretation of small scale faulting not seen on
original seismic. |
 |
Available as an
OpendTect plugin |
 |
Soon to be available as a Petrel plugin via the Ocean development framework. |

Product
Description
|
Observed
behaviour of
reflectivity data obtained from wells shows that in a global
sense the higher the frequencies the higher the amplitude. We
refer to this
as the spectrum being blue. During the processing of seismic data the
amplitudes are often whitened. Spectral shaping of seismic data using
SSB can enhance resolution without boosting noise to an unacceptable
level.

Benefits
of SSB
|
|
SSB
sections are usually easier to interpret and reveal more information
about the subsurface. Small scale faulting, not seen on the original
section, is often observed. Such additional information can be useful
during well planning. SSB is rapid, easy to use, inexpensive, robust
and does not require expert users. SSB seamlessly connects with third
party seismic and well data repositories (including SeisWorks,
OpenWorks and GeoFrame) using our client/server technology. SSB is also available as
an OpendTect plugin and can be downloaded from the OpendTect downloads
center. This allows SSB
analysis, operator design and processing to be performed without
separately importing or exporting data.
