Abstract
Disclosed herein are embodiments of a method, a non-transitory computer readable medium, and an apparatus for faulted seismic horizon mapping. In one example, a method comprises: obtaining seismic data for a seismic volume that corresponds to a subsurface formation; generating a map of at least one horizon in the subsurface formation based on the seismic volume; identifying at least one fault intersecting the at least one horizon; determining a throw of the at least one fault; and updating the map of the at least one horizon to incorporate the at least one fault based on the throw of the at least one fault.
