Abstract:
The present study comprises the subsurface structural interpretation of Kal area
using seismic sections and identification of hydrocarbon bearing zones using
Petrophysical analysis. The Kal area lies within the Upper Indus Basin in SE of Salt
Range Potwar Foreland Basin. The marked horizons are recognized using formation
tops from wells Kal-01. Seismic interpretation of the given 2D information reveals
that the study area has undergone severe distortion illustrated by the event 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 Sakessar Limestone and Khewra
Sandstone that could have the most important crude potential within the study area.
