ABSTRACT

Available geophysical technology allows seismic data to be transformed into approximations of borehole sonic logs. Since the two types of logs are constructed from different data sources there are predictable differences between them. Seismically derived sonic logs limit definition of both thin beds (0 to 60 ft; 0 to 18 m) and thick beds (300 to 1,000 ft; 90 to 300 m) in Jurassic strata. Analysis of filtered sonic logs provides a means of determining the frequency content of seismic data and ascertaining the amount of information that can be obtained from it.
