Applied Seismology
(A comprehensive guide to seismic theory and application)
By Mamdouh R. Gadallah and Ray L. Fisher
Publisher: PennWell books


The recent demand in the petroleum sector for new hires in all aspects of the business and the lack of practical training has created a major gap in the industry. Most of the books published by the professional societies and their training programs are highly specialized. The book by Gadallah and Fisher fills this void; it is timely and is a one stop shop for new interns, graduates and returnees to the business. The book covers aspects of petroleum exploration, development and reservoir monitoring. The book is orderly, well written, clear illustrations and contains plenty of practical examples. It is concluded with an extensive appendices and a bibliography.

The integrated approach by the authors to the subject makes the book distinctive. I highly recommend it to practicing geoscientist, reservoir seismologists, processors and field operators.

This book belongs on the desk of everyone working in
petroleum exploration. It is an outstanding reference.
