This study aims to interpret the seismic facies and geological structures of the Miocene-Pleistocene succession based on the 3-D seismic dataset. The seismic data was interpreted by using Kingdom 8.8 version software. The dimension of study area is approximately 187 km2 (14.8 km long by 12.6 km wide). The variable types of seismic facies and geological structures were determined from the horizontal (inline) and vertical (crossline) lines in 2D seismic section of study area. The seismic facies can be classified into for major seismic facies such as parallel and sub-parallel, wavy, facies that reach out to south-east and chaotic reflector. Parallel and semi- parallel facies consist from high amplitude to low amplitude and moderate to high continuity. The mounded discontinuous seismic facies also can be seen in the seismic section and can be interpreted as turbidities depositional environment at the two-way time (TWT) ranges from 1.4 to 1.5 ms. The chaotic facies contain natural gas as it display due to an error to a wave at the two-way time ranges from 1.0 to 1.1 ms. The geological structures were determined at the study area consists of anticlines, syncline and faults that can be interpreted as structural and stratigraphic trap for potential hydrocarbon.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
