Resolution from an Alternative Dimension

Seismic data contains a wealth of information, but it is often hard to get the complete picture by viewing a single attribute. Multi-attribute colour blending is an established technique that uses high resolution visualisation techniques to improve the way that information obtained from analysis of seismic data is presented to the interpreter. Multi-attribute colour blending can aid both stratigraphic and structural interpretation and this paper illustrates the improvements in understanding of facies heterogeneity and fault composition by using colour blending techniques. Stratigraphic variability is more easily identified using RGB colour blending models, whereas fault composition is most effectively viewed using a CMY blending scheme.
