Two Dimensional Seismic reflection Data Interpretation: Oil and Gas Exploration Techniques

By Tahir Rahim

Hydrocarbons are very much important for the economy of any country. Even on the smaller scale hydrocarbons play a wide role in our daily life. Geophysical methods are the most widely used methods in the exploration of hydrocarbons; especially reflection seismology has a great importance in this regard. Seismic method plays an important role in the search of hydrocarbons. It is the leading exploration technique used now-a-days. This study would highlight the role of seismic method in exploration geophysics. In order to carry out this study, seismic data of Meyal area located in central Potwar is used. Objectives of my Work: Identification of seismic reflectors on the basis of well tops and general stratigraphic column. Preparation of time and depth sections. Preparation of time and depth contour maps to confirm the presence of structures (Faults, Anticlines etc.) in the study area. Seismic attribute analysis to confirm the Seismic interpretation. Petrophysical interpretation to find the probable hydrocarbon saturated zones in the study area."
