Quantifying Uncertainty in Seismic Interpretation

This paper will introduce a new method to help quantify the effect of uncertainties in reservoir interpretation where, instead of generating a single model, interpreters can access a range of models that calculate probabilities for different outcomes. The method is based on uncertainty information being collected and paired with an interpreted feature (horizon, fault, contact etc), thereby more accurately representing the limitations of the data and the interpreter’s vision for the geologic structure.
