METHODS OF HYDROCARBON DETECTION USING SPECTRAL ENERGY ANALYSIS

摘要

A method for detecting hydrocarbons includes obtaining seismic trace data for a region of interest; and processing the seismic trace data to calculate a Smooth Signal Spectrum for each of a plurality of locations in the region of interest. A system for detecting hydrocarbons includes a processor and a memory, wherein the memory comprises a program having instructions for: obtaining seismic trace data for a region of interest; and processing the seismic trace data to calculate a Smooth Signal Spectrum for each of a plurality of locations in the region of interest.
