Abstract
Smith and Gidlow (1987) introduced the fluid factor in amplitude versus offset (AVO) analysis. It was designed to be a direct hydrocarbon indicator. Goodway et al. (1997) suggested that Lame’s elastic parameters λ and μ, and their products with density, could be useful tools in AVO analysis. They suggested in particular that λ, or its product with density, λρ, can be a direct hydrocarbon indicator. Gray et al. (1999) gave a method of estimating these parameters more directly, as does Chen (1999).
