Using FD Seismic Simulation for 3D Seismic Survey Design Complicated by Salt Dome Tectonics, Case Study

摘要

The main objective for the study was the design of optimal 3D seismic survey acquisition technique at Chervonoyarskaya field (Ukraine). The seismic exploration at the area is complicated by salt-dome tectonics and by the presence of a small town in the middle of the area that limits the use of seismic exploration. Case study covers overall survey design technique that was used and achieved results. The technique includes building a priory seismic and geological model and using FD simulation for choosing and proving optimal design.
