Overview
 Our group is responsible for the operation, and maintenance of the Energy Resources Program’s 2-D and 3-D seismic reflection data processing facility located in Denver, Colorado. We process newly acquired seismic data, and re-process older vintage data. These data can be either single or multi-channel 2-D seismic lines, or 3-D seismic data cubes. Also included in our responsibilities are various geophysical analyses of well logs. The end products we generate provide detailed subsurface structural and stratigraphic information which provides the foundation for geologic based hydrocarbon resource estimations, petroleum reservoir characterization, basin analysis, fluid flow modeling, geologic framework studies, detection of petroleum systems, recognition of geologic hazards, and the analysis of hydrologic systems.

 SEISMIC SPOTLIGHT |
Welcome Kristen Lewis!
Dr. Kristen Lewis, has joined the seismic group as a geophysicist specializing in seismic data interpretation. Krissy, as she prefers to be called, officially joined our group on March 3 and comes to us from BP with more than 5 years experience in seismic data interpretation. Krissy received her BA with honors, cum laude, in physics from Ohio Wesleyan University and her Ph.D. in geophysics from Colorado School of Mines. Krissy's interest at CSM was in moment tensor inversion of shallow seismic data. Welcome to our group Krissy!
