A method having application for the development of oil reservoirs for automatically extracting from a seismic image pertinent information for sedimentologic interpretation by using estimations of realistic chronological scenarios of sedimentary layers deposition. The method includes iterative estimation of a first and of a second chronological scenario of the deposition of sedimentary layers, assuming that each reflector settles at the earliest and at the latest possible moment during the sedimentary depositional process. A chronological level number is assigned to a group of initial reflectors. Then a chronological level number is incremented by one and decremented by one which numbers are assigned to the reflectors including pixels located above and respectively below the initial reflectors and above and respectively below no other reflector. An interpretation of these two chronological scenarios is eventually carried out so as to reconstruct the depositional conditions of the sedimentary layers.
