Discover how elastic full-waveform inversion (FWI) is transforming seismic imaging through highly automated, high fidelity workflows. In this webinar, you will learn how elastic and 4D FWI, including FWI derived reflectivity (FDR), deliver more reliable depth, impedance, and reservoir change information. Xin Cheng will show how multiparameter elastic FWI (Vp, Ip, Vp/Vs) improves structural confidence, reduces turnaround time, and tackles common challenges such as noise, and poor illumination and uncertainty in shallow water environments. Register now to gain practical insight into where and why elastic and 4D FWI outperform traditional approaches.
