Interpretation of Three-Dimensional Seismic Data, sixth ed. (AAPG Memoir/SEG Investigations in Geophysics No. 9)

Today's advanced geophysical workstations are truly magnificent tools, capable of providing tremendous geophysical data. This sixth edition of Alistair Brown's classic text on 3D seismic interpretation will help geologists, geophysicists, and engineers to interpret that data. Copublished with AAPG, it contains several updates and new data examples. Data interpretation of phase and polarity is addressed in the brand-new Appendix C. Appendix D adds a summary of recommendations to help today's interpreter get more out of 3D seismic data.

We are a pillar of the world-wide scientific community. Our books foster scientific research, advance the science of geology and promote the most effective use of petroleum extraction & processing technology and practice. Some of the areas we publish in include: GIS Petroleum Engineering Well Log Analysis Geological Modeling Carbonate Petrology Seismic Imaging Reservoir Characterization Regional Petroleum Analysis Interpretation of Three-Dimensional Seismic Data is the definitive, and now classic, text on the subject. Conceived in 1979 and first published in 1986, the book helps geoscientists extract more information from their seismic data and improve the quality of their interpretations (James D. Robertson).

The prime focus of the book continues to be the synergy between 3-D seismic data and the workstation. The author passionately addresses the widespread problem of data under-utilization. Two new chapters and several new sections have been added in the Seventh Edition, but basic data understanding continues to be stressed.
