2-D seismic data interpretation and structural analysis of Sanghar area, lower Indus basin, Pakistan (P-1132) (MFN 4222)

Abstract

This dissertation contains the study and interpretation of 2-D seismic reflection data of seismic lines of Sanghar area , Lower Indus Basin, Pakistan. The main objective of this research was delineation of subsurface structures favorable for hydrocarbon accumulation. This area is situated in the Sanghar district of Sindh province and is licensed to Oil and Gas Development Corporation Limited (OGDCL). The seismic data for this dissertation was provided by the Land Mark Resources (LMKR) by the permission of Directorate General of Petroleum Concessions (DGPC). The names of lines obtained are (862-SGR-148, 862-SGR-149, 862-SGR-150, 862-SGR-155). Three prominent reflectors were marked on the basis of their reflection character. Two-way time (TWT) was read from the seismic sections and average velocities were used to create TWT and Depth Counter maps.
