Mission: Our lab aims to develop innovative technologies of seismic imaging and well-logging for oil and gas exploration. In particular, we focus on time/depth seismic imaging, earth model building, and petrophysics for conventional and unconventional reserviors. Main focuses are (i) to develop time/depth migration algorithms for seismic imaging, (ii) to develop seismic/well-logging integrated earth model building approaches for depth seismic imaging, and (iii) to develop amplitude variation with offset (AVO) and microseismic techniques for evaluation/monitoring of oil and gas production. We create an environment that encourages learning, testing and creating of new ideas and concepts in geophysics.
