This volume comprises several short papers that review the results of the Bureau's State Lands Energy Resource Optimization (SLERO) project. By combining the information in the overview chapter with subsequent field-specific chapters, scientists, engineers, and oil and gas operators can find information applicable to nearly every major reservoir type in Texas.

This report presents three types of evidence documenting that the combination of P-wave and S-wave seismic data provides geologic insights that cannot be provided by conventional P-wave data alone.
