ABSTRACT:
A method for utilizing instantaneous phase and the derivatives of instantaneous phase as display and/or plot attributes for seismic reflection data processing and interpretation for two-dimensional and three-dimensional seismic data. The spatial frequency, dip magnitude and dip azimuth attributes of the seismic events are calculated using the rate of change of instantaneous phase with space, instantaneous frequency and velocity, and displayed or plotted to assist interpreters in identifying fault breaks and stratigraphic features in the earth's subsurface.
