Seismic Data Conditioning and Combination Attribute for Fault / Fracture Detection

Unconventional resources are those resources which require greater than industry standard technology or invesment to harness them. Tight sand gas is one such resource. The small faults and fractures play majot role in determining the reservoir quality in such cases. This paper discusses about data conditioning to retain appropriate signal band that enahnces small faults and then studying combination attributes to identify the areas of high fracture density.
