Depth to Basement

Werner Deconvolution

Werner Deconvolution is an automated function for determining depth to source from profiles. It is based on the popular Werner Deconvolution technique (Werner, 1953; Ku & Sharp, 1983)

The user can control Werner's parameters in order to customize the application to each situation. The Werner Deconvolution GX will calculate the horizontal derivative or you may provide your own pre-calculated horizontal derivative for greater control. The adjustable "Residual cut-off" parameter enables the user to control the separation of "signal" from noise. The Werner Deconvolution GX assumes the source bodies are either dikes or contacts with infinite depth extent and uses a least-squares approach to solve for the source body parameters in a series of moving windows along the profile. The user specifies both the range of window sizes and the increments between window placements, thereby maximizing solution accuracy.

Werner Deconvolution is a GX function included in the Depth to Basement software extension for Oasis montaj.
