Enhancing the indication of ancient geologic features by using seismic attributes technique extracted along picked horizons of seismic and flattened data

الملخص EN

Three Seismic Attributes are used to enhance or delineate geologic feature that cannot be detected within seismic resolution limit.

These are Instantaneous Amplitude, Instantaneous Phase and Instantaneous Frequency Attributes.

These are applied along two defined picked surface horizons within 3D seismic data for an area in southern Iraq.

Two geologic features are deduced, the first represents complex channel system at the top of Saadi Formation and the second represents submarine fan within Mishrif Formation.

The semblances of these ancient geological features are dramatically enhanced by using flattening technique
