Abstract
Time lapse seismic measurements of a laminated reservoir including sands and shales are processed to determine changes in the laminated reservoir. An initial petrophysical model is obtained at a wellbore from measurements made with a multicomponent resistivity logging tool. Changes in the amplitude versus offset behavior of the reflections from the top of the reservoir are indicative of changes in fluid saturation and/or formation pressure.
