Claim One:
1. A system for performing geological interpretation operations in support of energy resources exploration and production, comprising: a storage medium for storing a plurality of instructions for execution; and a processor for receiving said plurality of instructions and executing a set of steps for geological interpretation, said steps comprising: performing well log correlation operations, comprising forming dynamic cross-sections of a predetermined geological region for energy resources exploration and production, for generating a set of graphical data describing said predetermined geological region; interpreting the geological environment of said predetermined geological region from measured surface and fault data associated with said predetermined geological region; permitting the querying and filtering of graphical data representing said predetermined geological region; presenting manipulable three-dimensional geological interpretations of two-dimensional geological data relating to said predetermined geological region; displaying a plurality of base map features associated with said predetermined geological region; automatically updating said manipulable three-dimensional geological interpretations of two-dimensional data relating to said predetermined geological region; creating three-dimensional well log and seismic interpretations of geological data relating to said predetermined geological region; and presenting time-related visualizations of production volumes relating to said predetermined geological region.
