Abstract
Seismic
stratigraphic methods allow one to interpret and map reservoir, source, and seal
facies from reflection seismic data. Seismic stratigraphic methods have evolved
since the first publications in the late 1970’s. This document attempts to
provide an update of these elementary principles, written as a “how-to” series
of steps.
