Structural Attributes

via Coherency / Curvature

The Coherence attribute extracts
discontinuities from a seismic stack.

Depth slice of seismic amplitude

Seismic & Coherence

Flexible input options

Time- or depth-migrated
Partially stacked common offset or azimuth
Frequency-limited stacks

Applications for interpretation

Detect minor faults and fractures
Quantify fault/fracture density
Identify buried channels, deltas, and reefs

Curvature attributes emphasize the bending of reflectors in a seismic stack.

Diverse selection of curvature attributes

Curvedness
Most positive/negative curvature
Major/minor principal curvature
Mean/Gaussian curvature
Dip/strike curvature
Shape index

Applications for interpretation

Delineate faults, fractures, and folds
Quantify fault displacement
Identify fault connectivity
Classify brittle/ductile fault deformation

Horizon slice of seismic amplitude

Most negative curvature
