Introduction
This presentation will introduce you with the HorizonCube

tools that are used to manipulate an existing HorizonCube.
The manipulation includes the followings:
-Fill the gaps in a HorizonCube by adding more iterations.

-Truncate a HorizonCube to get a better Wheeler Diagram.
-Add a new Horizon to an existing HorizonCube to introduce an additional package (or a
sequence).
-Re-calculate a HorizonCube (or a package) by changing a SteeringCube.
-Extract seismic horizons from a HorizonCube.
.... And Much more.

To fill the gaps in a HorizonCube (red arrows), we suggest to add more

iterations i.e. track horizons in a gap that is being found in a package.

want to...
1- Modify a 2D HorizonCube adding more lines.

2- Add new packages by reading more horizons.
Furthermore, you may change the faults and

recompute the selected HorizonCube.

How To...
Modify a 2D HorizonCube by adding more lines.
Select the input HorizonCube.

Select the lines that you want to modify.
Change the settings of a package that you want
to change e.g. change a SteeringCube.
Optional:
If you have interpreted new faults in selected
package and you want to use them in calculation,
you may also select the new faults.
HorizonCube Tools
How To...
Add more packages in an existing 2D HorizonCube
(for specific lines or all lines).

Select the lines that you want to modify.
Press the Read Horizons button. (Tip: you will
have to select at least two horizons i.e. top and
base of the package).
The packages will be automatically inserted in the
calculation mode setup and will be sorted.
Change the settings of a package that you want
to change e.g. change a SteeringCube.

Optional:
If you have interpreted new faults in selected
package and you want to use them in
calculation, you may also select the new
faults.

horizons.
Press the Read horizons... button.

Select the horizons that you want to insert
(Tip: you will have to select at least two
horizons i.e. top and base of the package).
The packages will be automatically inserted
in the calculation mode setup and will be
sorted.
Provide the mode and settings for the newly
inserted package e.g. Data driven and the
SteeringCube.
Press Analyze button.
Press Go.

How To...
1. Display a HorizonCube first and then use this menu.
2. Move the slider (Top/Bottom) at a location where you
want a horizon.
3. Prese the Pick Horizon button to save a horizon at a
selected slider position. You can pick more than one
horizons (repeat steps: 2-3).
4. Press the Proceed button to extract horizons.

Convert to SteeringCube...
Why?
The HorizonCube can be data driven and as well as model driven. This makes it
more important especially in terms of filtering the seismic data along the
automated horizons geometries. Thus, you might want to create a model based
HorizonCube to create a SteeringCube out of it and filter the seismic data based
on a modelled based SteeringCube.
Further application could be the curvature/dip attributes analysis using a
SteerignCube created from a data driven HorizonCube.

from a modelled based HorizonCube.

Convert to SteeringCube...
How To...
1.Select the input HorizonCube.
2.The dip outside a HorizonCube can be set to undefined (type undef in the dip value field) or
leave the dip value to default (0).
3.Type the output name for the SteeringCube.
4.Press Proceed, this will start the batch processing.

Truncate HorizonCube...
Remove closely
spaced events
(next slide)
HorizonCube Tools
HorizonCube Tools
The selected input HorizonCube is truncated by removing the areas that define the allowed
horizons density i.e. Maximum density. The maximum density value refers to the number of
events within a seismic sampling rate. For instance, if you observe that you have 5 events
in a 4ms sampled data, you would probably want to remove those unwanted area.
Geologically, such regions of closely spaced horizons are often unconformities, pinchouts,
condensed intervals, and even the leeves (and/or the bottom) of a channel.
HorizonCube Tools
The truncated HorizonCube can be used for a better Wheeler Domain visualization and
thus the subdivision of sequences into systems tracts. The example below, shows a
comparison of Wheeler Diagrams of porosity volumes. Both diagrams are automatically
transformed using two types of HorizonCube(s).
Suggestion: For sequence stratigraphic interpretation, it is recommended to truncate a

continous HorizonCube.
