    New Absolute Acoustic Impedance Inversion Solution in OpendTect Pro

    Absolute Acoustic Impedance remains a cornerstone of modern seismic interpretation projects. It enables interpreting layer properties without distortions caused by tuning effects. The new Acoustic Impedance option in OpendTect Pro, is an extension of the (elastic) Linear Bayesian Inversion plugin by LTrace Geophysical Solutions. We believe this particular Acoustic Impedance Inversion offers the highest value for money of all solutions currently available in the market.

    LTrace Acoustic Bayesian Linear Inversion provides a deterministic acoustic seismic inversion using the linearized Bayesian methodology for estimating acoustic impedance from seismic data. The input data are the full stack seismic data, the wavelet and the low frequency model of acoustic inversion. The results are comparable to a constrained sparse spike inversion but are obtained up to 10x faster, since no optimization is required and the solution is analytically computed. The software also implements an approximation on the horizontal continuity model along an input horizon, allowing the user to impose lateral correlation on the results with a low overhead.
