Advantages of Shear Wave Seismic in Morrow Sandstone Detection

Figure 3

Well logs used for modeling show Morrow A sandstone at 1875 m and shallow anhydrite layers. Close-up of the Morrow interval (b) shows the strong S-wave velocity (blue curve) contrast as compared to P-wave velocity (red curve) contrast between Morrow shale and A sandstone.
