Topics

Call for papers is now open! Submit your paper before 23 July 2022

Abstract submission is now open! please submit abstracts on the following topics:

1. Seismic acquisition: technology, seismic design and operation

  • Broadband acquisition solutions: broadband sources and receivers, long offset geometries, and more.
  • High Resolution 3D acquisition solutions for geo hazards.
  • OBN advances in acquisition and processing
  • Environmentally friendly seismic sources.
  • Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS): Advances in the acquisition, processing, and applications for monitoring  & reservoir characterisation.

2. Seismic data processing & Imaging

  • ML algorithms implementation in seismic processing to reduce the time cycle.
  • Artificial intelligence applied in pre-processing. 
  • FWI and RTM, advances and challenges.
  • FWI in production, KPI´s, mainly the computer’s performance.
  • FWI Imaging implementation on Offshore Projects – A case study.
  • Full Waveform Inversion (FWI): Cloud implementation to reduce computing time
  • Common Offset RTM Gathers (COR) implementation for velocity updating in complex subsalt scenarios.
  • Innovative Imaging and Machine Learning solutions for detecting salt during velocity model building.
  • Integrated Basin Modelling & Reservoir Characterisation (workflows and case-studies)
  • Exploration of sub-salt play: latest improvements & limitations

3. Seismic interpretation:

  • Machine Learning & Automatisation techniques in seismic interpretation.
  • Rock physics constraints in seismic inversion
  • Reservoir characterisation from multi-azimuths and converted waves - cases studies 

4. Shallow structure:

  • Seismic reflexion applied in shallow structure for hazards, geotechnical engineering; for instance, the challenge working with small scales in acquisition & processing, and areas that are not sedimentary basins, etc.


*Please note! The Second EAGE Workshop on Advanced Seismic Solutions in the Gulf of Mexico will take place on-site only and will not be live-streamed or possible to join remotely.


 Workshop Template

Titles should be short (max. 16 words, longer titles will be cut off) and relevant. Extended abstracts must be in English, original and not have appeared in any other publication.

A summary of the extended abstract (max. 200 words) must be submitted as well. 

The body of the extended abstract needs to be two to four (2-4) full pages in length, paper size A4. Shorter sized abstracts will not be included in the review process and therefore be rejected. The extended abstract should consist of text and appropriate figures supporting the key message. The text should contain at least one figure and include references. Extended abstracts of text alone are unacceptable. 

Please do not use more than 1 column for text, do not frame the text, and please upload the body of your extended abstract as one document with embedded figures. 

A good extended abstract set in the Workshop Template consists of an introduction, the main description of theory or method broken down as appropriate and illustrated with figures, conclusions, optional acknowledgements and references. It should reflect work that is actually completed at the time of submission and not plans or ideas that are still taking shape in the mind of the author or research that is still highly immature.

The extended abstract must concentrate in itself the essential information of the presentation: purpose, methods, results and conclusions. It should be an abbreviated, informative, accurate representation of the presentation and not a mere recital of the subjects to be covered.

Workshop Template

Template usage:

  • Do not make a cover page for your extended abstract. EAGE will make this for you with the title, authors and summary. Therefore, do not include this information in the body text of your extended abstract. 
  • Start the body text of your extended abstract directly under the EAGE logo.
  • Use font ‘Times New Roman 11pts’ with single line spacing. Set the alignment as justified and use the standard Word outline level (body text).
  • Use 2,54 cm (1”) for top, bottom, left and right margin.

The lay-out of the references should be consistent with the style guide for references in the First Break guidance for authors. Please ensure every citation has a reference and vice versa. 

Number the figures sequentially, according to their appearance in the text, and check that each figure is cited in the text.

Supply a short caption for each figure; more detailed discussion of the figure can be reserved for the text. Further information about the use of figure captions and figure numbering can be found in the First Break guidance for authors

Uploading your Abstract

Your extended abstract will be uploaded in several steps using the online submission module. The body of the extended abstract must be uploaded using the Workshop Template, either in Word or PDF. Please make sure the file is not protected.
