Abstract

See full text

The invention concerns a method for detecting geological discontinuity in an environment using an optical flow. The method includes the steps of selecting in the seismic block a section containing at least one discontinuity. The section constitutes a seismic image. The method includes computing a rough optical flow on the seismic image to obtain a first representation of an optical flow wherein the discontinuity constitutes a moving front. The method also includes smoothing, by a non-supervised dynamic cluster process, the optical flow representation so as to obtain a second optical flow representation wherein the discontinuity shows accentuated contrasts.
