New paper on Joint Bayesian Inversion at the GEOPHYSICS journal

LTrace recently co-authored a new paper at one of the most respected journals of the area: SEG’s GEOPHYSICS. Dr. Leandro Figueiredo, our co-founder was the first author.

The authors propose a generalized methodology to define a joint distribution of elastic and petrophysical properties, based on a rock-physics model parametrized by facies. The distribution is used as a prior model in a Bayesian framework to jointly estimate the facies, the elastic and the petro-physical properties of the subsurface.

The paper was written in cooperation with professor Dr. Dario Grana, from the University of Wyoming, professors Dr. Mauro Roisenberg and Dr. Marcio Santos, from UFSC, and Bruno Rodrigues from Petrobras.
