Abstract
In the 70's seismic interpretation was still mainly limited to structural and stratigraphic interpretation of the subsurface. Then with the advent of better recording and processing techniques, preserving the amplitude information in the seismic, attention focused on linking subsurface rock and fluid parameters to the seismic amplitudes. 3D seismic data, with its areal consistency and use in field appraisal and development pushed this requirement further. We now have the ability to link the whole range of surface seismic data properties to the subsurface rock properties we wish to measure. This paper describes where we are now, and the challenges for the future in terms of using seismic and well data to quantify reservoir properties.
