• BandWidth.mov
  • Shows the effect of bandwidth on the appearance of a wavelet. As the bandwidth increases, the wavelet becomes narrower in the time domain.
• BinSize.mov
  • Shows the effect a variable linear velocity gradient has on bin size calculation as a function of dip. Thin line is the constant velocity calculation, while thick line honors the variable velocity.
• Channels.mov
  • Shows 30 time slices from the Stratton 3-D data set (BEG). The time of each slice is annotated and channel forms can be seen in several slices. The best channel is seen at 836 ms.
• Phase.mov
  • Shows the effect of variable phase on a wavelet. The phase is 0 degrees in the first frame and advances 30 degrees per frame .
• ReflCoef.mov
  • Shows the effect of pressure (P), oil saturation (So), and API oil gravity on reflection coefficient for a sandstone reservoir. The animation indicates there is a strong dependence on pressure, but only weak ones from So and API. So this reservoir would likely show amplitude changes over time as the field is depleted, and these would be related almost exclusively to pressure drop.
• Tuning.mov
  • Shows the development of tuning associated with a thin bed. The thing to watch is the center trace and see where it has maximum amplitude. This will occur when the bed is one-quarter wavelength thick (bed = 0.25 lambda).
• VertRes.mov
  • Shows the onset of vertical resolution associated with a thin bed. The thing to watch is the center trace and see where it develops two peaks. This will occur when the bed is one-quarter wavelength thick (bed = 0.25 lambda).
