2D Seismic Interpretation |
Competency Statement: Evaluate seismic sections to interpret chronostratigraphic units and structural elements. Use the techniques of seismic interpretation to pick horizons and faults over an interval of interest. Tie existing well information to the seismic section using a synthetic seismogram. Combine the seismic interpretation and well data to create a seismic time map. Learning Objective:
Assignment Instruction: Your company is planning to bid on an offshore area.�The only information available is�160 Km of 2D seismic and two wells with logs (see below).� As a member of the exploration team, you�will use this information to evaluate the hydrocarbon potential of the area. You will propose to your management whether or not to bid by providing the seismic interpretation of the area. By mapping structural and stratigraphic features with exploration potential,�you�will�also propose further seismic surveys and/or reprocessing of existing seismic lines as needed. 2D seismic lines and wells distribution �
Do the assignment sequentially as all answers might be used as input for subsequent questions. You should take notes of all your answers. |
