| Abstract
|
:
|
The book was written for earth scientists who wish to get acquainted with the dynamic field of applied remote sensing for hydrocarbon exploration. It offers three ingredients which are generally lacking in other remote sensing text books: (1) examples of satellite image interpretation that are supported by surface and, more importantly, subsurface controls; (2) demonstration of a systematic approach to the interpretation and integration of satellite imagery data as part of an exploration program; and (3) synthesis of the processes that lead to the structural, geomorphic and spectral signature which are manifested on satellite imagery data. Berger's approach is governed by the exploration practices of major oil companies which rely heavily in their exploration effort on the use of seismic and well data. Thus, the focus of the book is on the recognition of geological features that can be used to constrain and improve the interpretation and integration of these conventional exploration tools. There is no attempt to present remote sensing as a "stand alone" prospecting tool. The examples cited in this book are based on case histories which were conducted at various Exxon affiliate offices by the author and colleagues from the remote sensing and structural analysis groups of Exxon Production Research Company, Houston, Texas, as well as material used at EPRCo. for training purposes.
