Translations:Seismic sequence attribute map (SSAM)/3/en

Seismic sequence attribute mapping involves reading digital seismic data into a computer, using various statistical computations to summarize the data between two defined time or depth boundaries, and presenting those data in map form. Subtle patterns in those statistics might not be apparent on individual seismic lines but often can become clear when viewed in map form. Furthermore, such subtle changes can provide the key to understanding lithology or fluid content — information that is critical to successful exploration or exploitation.
