UK MNSH 47

Complex faulting, unconformities and terminations, carbonate platforms and salt structures.

This example is from a central portion of Line 47 from the UK North Sea Transition Authorities “Mid North Sea High” dataset. The data is used by permission.

The target zone is carbonate platforms in the Zechstein formation (purple). Other potential targets exist throughout the upper section.

Line 47 Overview Comparison.

This is the central portion of the line. There are significant amplitude anomalies in the lower Zechstein event plus complex faulting, unconformities and terminations.

StratiScape Greyscale

Enhanced fault visibility

Visualizing and understanding fine scale fault details is an essential element of any interpretation. Notice how much clearer and more distinct the fault plane reflections are on the StratiScape image.
Dual Polarity Variable Density

Dual Polarity display comparison.

The left image is our dual polarity display that shows negative polarity events in green and positive in white. It is exceptional at highlighting changes in both positive and negative impedances.
StratiScape Variable Density

Amplitudes and pinchouts at an unconformity.

Notice the amplitude details and the clarity of the terminations on the StratiScape image.
StratiScape Greyscale

Ghost Events

A problem with greyscale images is that low-amplitude events appear ghosted and hard to follow and interpret. Notice how these events now stand out on the StratiScape image.
