Traveling worldwide, the SEG Distinguished Instructor Short Course (DISC) is an eight hour,

one-day short course on a topic of current and wide-spread interest.



The 2016 DISC course will give an overview of 3C seismic theory and practical

application: from fundamentals of PS-waves and VSPs, through to acquisition and

processing including interpretation techniques. The emphasis will be on unique

aspects of vector wavefields, anisotropy, and the important relationships that unify

S-waves and P-waves. Various applications and case studies will demonstrate

image benefits from PS-waves, elastic properties from joint inversion of amplitude

variations with offset/angle (AVO/A), and VSP seismic methods for improved

reservoir characterization.

All attendees receive a textbook with course registration.
