Author Information

Nader C. Dutta is a recognized industry expert on Geopressure and was the Senior Science Advisor of Schlumberger prior to retiring in 2015. He is currently a Visiting Scholar at the Geological Sciences Department, Stanford University, California. He is the Editor of SEG's book – Geopressure (1987), and has been a member of United Nations Environmental Program (UNEP) and USA-DOE Gas Hydrate Assessment Committee. Ran Bachrach is a Scientific Advisor for Schlumberger supporting both research and operations, and specializing in various geoscience topics including high-resolution geophysics, rock physics and geomechanics, 3D/4D imaging of subsurface processes, seismic inversion and seismic reservoir analysis. Tapan Mukerji is a Professor in the Department of Energy Resources Engineering, and by courtesy in the Departments of Geophysics and Geological Sciences at Stanford University, California. He received the Society of Exploration Geophysicists' Karcher Award in 2000, and shared the 2014 ENI award for pioneering innovations in theoretical and practical rock physics for seismic reservoir characterization. He is also a co-author of The Rock Physics Handbook (2020), Value of Information in Earth Sciences (2015), and Quantitative Seismic Interpretation (2010) published by Cambridge University Press.
