Method of seismic signal processing

摘要

A method of seismic analysis is disclosed for determining geopressures or seismic velocities or other formation attributes. A frequency related attribute is determined from seismic data by analysis of the frequency content of one or more signal traces. Geopressure or velocity may then be derived from the frequency related attribute without reliance on moveout techniques. A derivative of a maximum value of pore pressure is utilized to determine a transition zone whereby the derivative peaks and then recedes. The lithology is then examined to determine a formation directly below the transition zone at which an overpressure may exist.
