try using interferometry. See the paper on RG
Saif ud din, Al Dosari, A., Al Ghadban, A.N., Aritoshi, M. 2006. Use of interferometric techniques for detecting subsidence in the oil fields of Kuwait using Synthetic Aperture Radar Data. Jour. Petrol. Sci. Eng., Vol. 50, No. 1, pp. 1 – 10.
Look into backstriping. The method will help you to estimate the various subsidence components of a sedimentary basin. The method is described in:
Flexure of the lithosphere and continental margin basins, A.B. Watts, W.B.F. Ryan (1976), Techtonophysics]
The keyword is Backstripping, as Juan says,
It was developed by Watts & Ryan (1976, Techtonophysics].
We used this technique in the attached paper, have a look. We mention a computer program too.

Thanks to Saif Uddin, Juan and Daniel. I will go through these publications.
