Compressional Tectonics Interpretation Fundamentals
e-Learning
About the eLearning Course
This eLearning course intends to explain the fundamentals of interpreting seismic
data to those unfamiliar with this concept. We will examine the characteristics of
compressional basins by examining their geology and geophysical signature.
Target Audience
Geologists, geophysicists, and engineers who want to use seismic data for
petroleum exploration and/or production. Familiarity with geological terminology
will be helpful.
You Will Learn
- Recognize and interpret different styles of compressional features on seismic data
- Identify structural characteristics associated with compressional tectonics
- Interpret seismic data in compressional tectonics
Course Content
- Compressional Basins
- Compressional Thrust Basins
