Francis X. Schloeder III

The principal objective of Previous HitseismicNext Hit exploration is to determine three geologic parameters, the structural top, the bottom, and the lateral extent of an oil and gas reservoir. Conventional (100%) Previous HitdataNext Hit is very efficient in locating the structural top and bottom of reservoirs. Previous HitTwoNext Hit-Previous HitdimensionalNext Hit (2D) common depth point (CDP) Previous HitseismicNext Hit Previous HitdataNext Hit provides an immense improvement in Previous HitseismicNext Hit Previous HitdataNext Hit quality over conventional (100%) Previous HitdataNext Hit. This improvement enables the explorer to better visualize and map the reservoir in each direction of the Previous HitseismicNext Hit line. Three-dimensional (3D) Previous HitseismicNext Hit technology provides even more mappable Previous HitdataNext Hit and capability. The explorer may visualize every imaginable direction and subtlety of a reservoir. This talk compares conventional (100%), Previous HittwoNext Hit-Previous HitdimensionalNext Hit (2D), and thr e-dimensional (3D) Previous HitseismicNext Hit Previous HitdataNext Hit from the Midcontinent. Case histories of the Douglas (Upper Pennsylvanian) in Texas, the Morrow (Lower Pennsylvanian) in Colorado, the "Chat" (Mississippian) and the Hunton (Silurian-Devonian) in Oklahoma, and the Simpson (Ordovician) in Kansas will be discussed. Major and independent operators can maximize their exploration efforts by integrating existing Previous HitdataTop with three-dimensional (3D) technology and a solid geologic interpretation.
