The evaluation of drilling prospects is frequently based on seismic amplitude anomalies. To decipher “true” seismic prospects from “false” ones, we used poroviscoelastic (PVE) models, as opposed to other formalisms such as acoustic, elastic, viscoelastic, and poroelastic models, that provided a solu...
