Predicting the permeability of fractured reservoirs is valuable for both reservoir assessment and drilling planning. Characterization of such systems requires advanced amplitude analysis, mainly based on seismic imaging results of the recorded wavefield.

A seismic survey was conducted in a production oil field in Serbia. It was assumed that significant reserves still exist in the field, as well as additional undiscovered reservoirs. An advanced seismic imaging technology was required to further characterize the existing reservoirs and identify and characterize new ones.

Seismic processing, imaging, characterization and interpretation are preferably executed as a continuous workflow to maintain seismic data integrity and consistencies. Geophysicists must construct a workflow from hundreds of applications and algorithms, and thousands of parameters, to achieve desired project outcomes. Almost all these applications and algorithms are based on assumptions about the underlying geological model complexity and subsurface conditions.

The past few years have seen increased interest in the application of machine learning in the industry, specifically to seismic interpretation.

There has been growing interest in the use of machine learning technologies for processing and interpreting seismic data. Many procedures that traditionally have been performed using deterministic methods and algorithms can be effectively replaced by neural networks and other artificial intelligence methodologies, improving simplicity, efficiency and automation.
