Abstract:
Meyal Oil Field, the study area, is located in district Attock near Pindi Gheb,
the central part of Potwar plateau of Upper Indus Basin. The study area lies in the
Himalayan collision zone between the Indian and Eurasian plates involving
continuous uplifting, erosion and deposition of the sediments. Rocks from Pre-
Cambrian to Quaternary age are present in the area. The Salt Range Formation is
overlain by the Cambrian to Eocene platforms. The reflectors are marked with the
help of formation tops of well Meyal-17 using VSP data. Interpretation of seismic
lines shows the presence of a popup structure in the area. Popup structure is most
likely to be the trap for the hydrocarbons. The Popup structure is east-west trending,
gently dipping anticlinal fold, bounded by thrust faults. For the structural
interpretation of the area, time and depth contour maps are generated. Correlation of
Meyal-01, Meyal-17, Meyal-8P and Meyal-16(Ahmad, A., 2013), is made for the
synthesis of subsurface structures between the wells. Attribute analysis suggests the
presence of hydrocarbon at the Chorgali and Sakesar formations level.
