Venue :
The 15th International Workshop on Seismic Anisotropy (15IWSA) will be held from April 14 to 19, 2012 in Bahrain. The Workshop is organized by the Dhahran Geoscience Society (DGS), Dhahran, Saudi Arabia.

The Workshop will cover both theoretical and applied aspects of seismic anisotropy in earth sciences. In particular, the workshop will focus on applications of anisotropic models and methods in exploration & development of both conventional and unconventional Oil & Gas reservoirs, earthquake seismology, and reservoir monitoring using seismic anisotropy and microseismic. Key areas will include multi-component seismic data acquisition and processing, anisotropic velocity analysis, seismic imaging, seismic inversion of wide-azimuth data, seismic fracture detection & characterization, fluid flow in fractured media, effective medium theory, stress/frac monitoring, earthquake prediction, time-lapse seismic monitoring, frequency-dependent anisotropy, up-scaling, seismic anisotropy from well data such as sonic logs & VSP, and poroelasticity.

The Workshop will open with an icebreaker in the evening of April 14 (Saturday). In keeping with the tradition, Tuesday will be a free day with one or two offered excursions in Bahrain. The last session of the Workshop will be in the afternoon of April 19 (Thursday).

The venue for the workshop will be the Gulf Hotel, Bahrain.
