Seismic Resolvable Frequency Band For The Pre-Miocene Oil Targets Ras Budran, Gulf Of Suez, Egypt

Abstract

Seismic attenuation problem in Ras Budran area, Gulf of Suez was tackled by defining the resolvable frequency band. This band can transmit through the Miocene evaporitic cyclic section and hit pre-Miocene oil targets. This resolvable frequency band, which suffer minimum attenuation, was defined by using the area V.S.P. and its frequency-energy analysis. Also, the attenuation rates, through the Miocene evaporitic section, were defined. These results can serve for an accurate frequency processing of the surface seismic data. It helps to recognize the desired frequencies and to reject the other undesired frequencies. It also, guides in designing the source signature for a better picture at the target zones.
