Abstract

Multi-attribute analysis through volume blending is a powerful tool for enhancing seismic data for interpretation, but it remains under-utilized. It is most effective when a structural attribute, such as seismic discontinuity or shaded relief, is displayed in grayscale and combined with a stratigraphic attribute, such as reflection strength or average frequency, displayed in color. Shaded relief and amplitude gradient attributes are particularly useful in volume blending and complement discontinuity by showing different details in the data.
