Why is a good well tie important?
Align the synthetic trace computed from the well
log and link to the corresponding events of the
seismic section
• More confidence on seismic interpretation
• Impedance and inversion

• Impedance log not
correlated properly
Shift
Extract
Wavelet phase : time shift of logs
Shift the log
(change the depth-time
curve)
Extract the wavelet

Theoretically, we can
shift the wavelet
instead of the log
(1) If there is more
than one well, a
single wavelet shift
will not fix all the
mis-ties.
(2) Doing inversion
with the shifted
wavelet will
position the
derived impedance
at the wrong time.
Don’t Shift

(1) Use the well(s) and
seismic to extract both
the amplitude and phase
spectra of the wavelet.
(2) Use the seismic alone to
extract the amplitude
spectrum of the wavelet.

Why not always use
the wells?
Log correlation
errors can cause
very big phase
problems
Optimized log
