Abstract: The relations between the seismic data interpretation and the oil/gas-bearing reservoir prediction is stated in the paper. It introduces the geological-geophysical presuppositions, principles, methods and steps of the reservoir lateral prediction with the seismic technique and then emphasizes the importance on exact calibration in the oil/gas bearing reservoir study and it requires to combine the geology, the logging and drilling data and uses the VSP -corridor stacking and synthetic seismogram, it also explains the effects of reservoir prediction of combining the conventional with detailed seismic data processing in reservoir prediction.

Key words: Seismic wave, Reservoir stratum, Prediction, Calibration, Resolving power, Surrounding rock
