Variables

wave imagewave image
rockAVO enables the user to perturb rock, fluid and seismic properties and observe the effects on the modeled elastic well logs (acoustic impedance and Poisson ratio) and pre- and post-synthetic seismic data.

Examples of some of the variables that can be perturbed are given below.

  • Rock properties: water saturation (Sw), porosity (PHIT), the volume of clay (Vcl)
  • Fluid properties: gas gravity, oil gravity, GOR
  • Seismic properties: dominant seismic frequency, angle mute, offset increment, wavelet
  • Properties for 4D & CCS: volume and type of cement, pore pressure, CO2 fluid mixer
  • Other properties: GOC position, AVA pick depth, substitution interval
