Stratiseismic approach to evaporitic series by well logging and high-resolution seismic. Fundamental contribution of density values in determining reflection coefficients

Because of their peculiar depositional environment, evaporitic series are of prime interest for bath hydrocarban exploration (association with source rocks and traps) and mining (salt detection). Because reflection is caused by density-velocity contrasts, a joint study of geology, well logging data (mainly sonic density logs), and seismic data improve understanding of deposits.
