The well-known, traditional way to extend P-wave acoustic impedance data between and beyond the well log locations is the post-stack inversion of seismic data usually available in the surroundings of the boreholes. A relatively new trend in the seismic exploration is based on the pre-stack inversion of the seismic CDP gathers providing both the P- and S-wave acoustic impedance sections (and volumes), as well as the estimated density data. This methodology is often called as simultaneous model-based inversion and can be utilized not only for hydrocarbon exploration, but it might also be a useful tool for the investigation of geothermal resources. In this study, we will compare the results of post-stack and pre-stack acoustic impedance inversions utilizing the same seismic volume. We will demonstrate and analyze the inverted attribute sections (and some of their derivatives) obtained by the pre-stack algorithm in detail. Finally, we will draw the conclusions about the lithological discrimination of the studied complex carbonate geothermal reservoir located in the pre-Cenozoic basement of the Little Hungarian Plain.
