Abstract:
The basic objective of the study is to get preliminary understanding of the
subsurface structural trend and stratigraphy of the cited area. Seismic data interpretation
eventually resulted in outcomes as time and depth contour maps. Bahawalpur area is a
part of the Middle Indus Basin of Pakistan. It is a broad monocline tectonically dipping
gently towards the Sulaiman Depression. Punjab Platform is tectonically the least
affected area because of its greater distance from the collision zone. There were no faults
observed in the area and the saturation of hydrocarbons in the formations was not of
economic value.
