The following paper aims at applying a semi-automated method for comprehensive seismic interpretation on a Neuquen Basin case study, onshore Argentina. The performed workflow is based on the creation of a signal driven Relative Geological Time (RGT) model (Pauget et al, 2009). RGT model outputs such as Thinning attribute, Wheeler diagram and isochrones enable to emphasize two prograding systems in the Cuyo Group and Quintuco-Vaca Muerta Formation. A 3D stratigraphic framework is built from boundary delineation with bedset termination management, and unit modeling with sedimentary dynamics assignment. This interpretation of depositional settings then leads to a dynamic analysis of isochrones through a stratal slicing performed at a sub-seismic sample scale. The analysis of seismic amplitudes, spectral decomposition results and RGT attributes finally reveals the presence of Cuyo sub-marine canyons interpreted as turbidite systems.
