Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Choose the correct statement of the importance of seismic attributes:

    • A. 

      Seismic attributes give single information about structure only.

    • B. 

      Seismic attributes enable interpreters to extract more information from seismic data.

    • C. 

      Seismic attributes cannot be used as DHI.

    • D. 

      None of the above are correct.

    Correct Answer
    B. Seismic attributes enable interpreters to extract more information from seismic data.
    Explanation
    Seismic attributes enable interpreters to extract more information from seismic data. This is because seismic attributes are quantitative measurements derived from seismic data that provide additional insights into the subsurface properties. By analyzing these attributes, interpreters can identify and characterize geological features such as faults, fractures, lithology, fluid content, and reservoir properties. This helps in making more accurate interpretations and predictions about the subsurface conditions, which is crucial in various applications like oil and gas exploration, reservoir characterization, and geohazard assessment.

    Seismic attributes which is commonly used for characterizing sand quality

    • A. 

      Amplitude

    • B. 

      Phase

    • C. 

      Frequency

    • D. 

      Quality factor

    Correct Answer
    A. Amplitude
    Explanation
    Amplitude is a seismic attribute commonly used for characterizing sand quality. It refers to the maximum displacement or distance that a seismic wave moves from its resting position. In the context of sand quality, amplitude can provide valuable information about the thickness and porosity of sand layers, as well as the presence of any fluid-filled reservoirs. By analyzing the amplitude of seismic waves, geoscientists can assess the potential for hydrocarbon reservoirs or other valuable geological formations within the sand.

    The seismic polarity used for interpretation

    • A. 

      Minimum phase

    • B. 

      Maximum phase

    • C. 

      Zero phase

    • D. 

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    C. Zero phase
    Explanation
    Zero phase refers to a type of seismic polarity used for interpretation. It means that the seismic wavelet has been shifted in time so that it starts at zero time. This allows for a clearer and more accurate interpretation of seismic data, as it eliminates any phase distortion caused by the earth's layers. By using zero phase, the seismic data can be analyzed more effectively, leading to better understanding of subsurface structures and potential oil and gas reservoirs.

    The seismic polarity acquired during seismic acquisition

    • A. 

      Minimum phase

    • B. 

      Maximum phase

    • C. 

      Zero phase

    • D. 

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Minimum phase
    Explanation
    Minimum phase refers to a type of seismic wavelet that has a specific phase characteristic. In the context of seismic acquisition, it means that the acquired seismic data has been processed in a way that preserves the minimum phase nature of the wavelet. This is important because minimum phase data allows for accurate imaging and interpretation of subsurface structures. By preserving the minimum phase, the seismic data retains the original timing and amplitude information, resulting in a clearer and more reliable representation of the subsurface. Therefore, the correct answer is minimum phase.

    Spectral decomposition techniques are derived based on:

    • A. 

      Phase

    • B. 

      Sweetness

    • C.

Spectral decomposition involves breaking down a signal or waveform into its constituent frequencies, allowing for analysis and understanding of the different frequency components present. By studying the frequency content of a signal, spectral decomposition techniques can provide valuable insights into various phenomena, such as the composition of sound, the behavior of electromagnetic waves, or the characteristics of vibrations.

    The seismic data frequencies are usually ranging between:

    • A. 

      10 – 80 KHz

    • B. 

      100 – 800 KHz

    • C. 

      10 – 80 Hz

    • D. 

      5 – 10 Hz

    Correct Answer
    C. 10 – 80 Hz
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 10 - 80 Hz. Seismic data frequencies typically range between 10 and 80 Hz. Seismic data is used to study the Earth's subsurface and detect underground structures and resources. Low frequencies, such as 10 - 80 Hz, are commonly used because they can penetrate deep into the Earth and provide detailed information about the subsurface. Higher frequencies, like 100 - 800 KHz, are more suitable for shallow subsurface imaging.

    Choose the correct answer of seismic resolution if the wavelength is 40 meters

    • A. 

      20 m

    • B. 

      10 m

    • C. 

      12.5 m

    • D. 

      160 m

    Correct Answer
    B. 10 m
    Explanation
    Seismic resolution refers to the ability of a seismic survey to distinguish between two separate subsurface features. It is directly related to the wavelength of the seismic waves used in the survey. The shorter the wavelength, the higher the resolution. In this case, the given wavelength is 40 meters. Among the options provided, the shortest wavelength is 10 meters. Therefore, the correct answer for seismic resolution with a 40-meter wavelength would be 10 meters.
