Kriging Seismic Data in Presence of Faults

  • Chapter
Geostatistics for Natural Resources Characterization

Abstract

When processing seismic times, it is of upmost importance to take into consideration the action of faulting, to allow both a correct estimation and display of the data. Kriging with a fault throw as an imposed drift allow to include a very precise model of faults to the standard drift functions. After examining in detail an academic example in 1-D,the routine 2-D practical situation is studied and 2 real examples are shown.
