Abstract

In this paper, we present a new method for seismic waveform characterization whose aim is threefold, namely (i) extraction of detailed information on the sharpness of transitions in the subsurface from seismic waveforms, (ii) reflector modeling, based on binary-mixture and percolation theory, and (iii) establishment of well-seismic ties, through parameterizations of our waveform and critical reflector model. We test this methodology on the opal-A (Amorphous) to opal-CT (Cristobalite/Tridymite) transition imaged in a migrated section of North Sea field data West of the Shetlands.
