Abstract:
The presented study comprises of subsurface structural interpretation of Kal area
using seismic sections and identification of hydrocarbon bearing zones using
Petrophysical analysis. Kal lies within the Upper Indus Basin in SE of Salt
Range Potwar Foreland Basin. The marked horizons are recognized using formation
tops from well Kal-01. Seismic interpretation of the given 2D information reveals that
the study area has undergone severe distortion illustrated by the events of thrusts and
back thrusts forming a triangle zone within the subsurface. The final trend of those
structures is NW-SE indicating the area to be a part of compressional regime. The zones
interpreted by the study includes Khewra Sandstone that could have the most important
hydrocarbon potential within the study area.
