MINIMIZING THE UNCERTAINTIES IN DEPTH PREDICTION OFCARBONATESTRUCTUREIN CENTRAL LUCONIA PROVINCE, OFFSHORE SARA W AK

The objective of this case study is to reduce the uncertainties in depth prediction of the target carbonate reservoir by mapping optimum interval velocities in the overlying sequences. Lithology facies variations have very significant impact on the lateral and vertical velocity behaviour of geolo...
