Use of the method of earth natural electromagnetic fields registration for direct prospecting and exploration for hydrocarbons and her comparison with well data interpretation of results in Lattakia

Abstract EN

Method of Earth Natural Electromagnetic Fields is based upon registration of impulse electromagnetic emission, occurring in rocks due to different geological processes.

The purpose of this trial work was to test how Natural Electromagnetic Fields Measurements could contribute to petroleum exploration in the area.

Taking it into account, the survey was performed for the solution of the following targets: 1) Evaluation of hydrocarbon potential of Lattakia block for precise focusing of further exploration efforts.

2) Delineation of structural and lithological petroleum traps, their evaluation based on electromagnetic evidences of hydrocarbons presence.

3) Identification of possible hydrocarbon reservoirs dimensions and target horizons’ depth.
