A method of identifying bounded hydrocarbon formations of interest in a seismic data set includes obtaining a seismic data set, pre-processing the seismic data set, inputting the plurality of graphical model inputs and one or more rules to a graphical model, wherein the rules define a relationship between a plurality of attributes of a bounded hydrocarbon formation, running a graphical model on the graphical model inputs, post-processing the graphical model outputs, and displaying the ranked clusters in order of rank.

Context based bounded hydrocarbon formation identification

A method for identifying a plurality of features of interest in a seismic image includes ranking each feature of interest. The method also includes modeling a relationship between the rank of each feature of interest and a user rating of the feature of interest. The method further includes updating the ranking of the plurality of features of interest, including (1) receiving a user rating for one feature of interest that has not been previously rated by a user; (2) updating the model of the relationship between the rank of each feature of interest and the user rating of the feature of interest based on the user rating; (3) applying the model to the ranking of the plurality of features of interest; and (4) repeating steps (1)-(3) until a termination criterion is met.

System and method for seismic data interpretation

A method includes accessing a seismic image comprising a plurality of features of interest. The method also includes defining a plurality of configuration files for a plurality of graphical models. The method further includes applying the plurality of graphical models to the seismic image. The method also includes generating a plurality of scores for each feature of interest, wherein each graphical model generates a score for each feature of interest. The method further includes combining the plurality of scores for each feature of interest into a plurality of combined scores, wherein each feature of interest has a combined score.
