HGS General Luncheon
Wed Jan 30, Petroleum Club, 11:30 am
Chris Edwards of Exxon Mobil takes us into the heart of a deepwater turbidite fan, using an ultra-high resolution 3D seismic volume.  Seismic resolution estimated at 1-2 m provides a 3D image at bedset-scale that cannot be matched by either outcrop or conventional seismic data.
Come see an excellent case study depicting the internal architecture of the latest Pleistocene Upper Fan of the Trinity-Brazos slope system in "Temporal and spatial evolution of a deepwater turbidite fan as revealed by ultra-high resolution 3D seismic data, East Breaks, Gulf of Mexico," from Chris and his co-authors, Paul Dunn, Victor Abreu, David Hoyal, Benjamin Sheets, and Roger Bloch.
