ACAE Case Study.8How to Predict Porosity from Seismic -- By Integrating Core Data
The petrophysical “signal” for AVO lithology analysis is the lithology dependence ofVp/Vs. Inspection of Vp versus Vs trend curves for sandstones, shales, limestones,and dolomites, reveals that lithology discrimination is most robust at highervelocities where sandstones have low Vp/Vs (1.5 - 1.6) and the other lithologieshave higher Vp/Vs (1. 7- 2.0).
