Comparative analysis (CASP): A proposal for quantifying seismic data processing

Seismic Inversion Methods and some of their constraints

“…A multi-disciplinary approach is certainly advisable to guarantee the best end result. The initiative of Comparative Analysis of Seismic Processing or CASP (Ajlani et al 2003) is a step in the right direction that takes a proper balance between data quality, turnaround and costs into account.…”

Best Practices from Super-Giant 3D-OBC Seismic Survey, Offshore Oil Field Abu Dhabi

“…The high value knowledge and data familiarity gained by the project team during this multi-processors exercise were integrated in the ongoing acquisition which contributed to improvements in data quality and optimization of operations (Ajlani et al, 2003). This volume was processed by 5 pre -selected different world-class seismic processing contractors under the same conditions: turn-around time of 3.5 months, support data and lump -sum payment providing that contract conditions were met by the service providers.…”
