Abstract
The invention targets in particular a method for searching for a seismic horizon in a seismic image of the subsoil. The method notably comprises the designation of two points belonging to the horizon sought, the iterative search for the best solution for the equation of the seismic horizon notably by virtue of a breakdown of this solution into two components, a pseudo-continuous component and a jump component.
