Some people think that oil is in big pools underground.
Actually, most oil is trapped in the tiny pore spaces between grains
of rock or sand. Most of these pores are too small to be seen with
the naked eye.

Applied Geophysics
The study of tectonic plates and earthquakes
The study of Earth’s composition
Geophysics
What is it?
The study of natural hazards
Explores for oil and gas
 The application of physics principles to
the study of the subsurface of earth, to
search of hydrocarbon.
 Geophysical investigations of the earth
interior involves taking measurements at
earth’s surface that are influenced by the
internal distribution of physical
properties.
 The objective of any exploration venture
is to find new volumes of hydrocarbons
at a low cost and in a short period of
time.
What does a Geophysicist do?
responsibilities
Laying out geophones
In old days used to have wide, high-impact cut lines Today, in
environmentally sensitive areas we use hand cut, low-impact cut
lines; supported by helicopters, not as much heavy equipment
* As a geophysicist, your responsibility to ensure that work is done
in environmentally sensitive manner
Remote locations
Moving into tougher areas to explore since easier areas have been
evaluated

Gravity
Method
Measuring the variation in earths gravitational
field caused by differences in the density of
subsurface rocks
Interpretation of gravity maps presents many
problems, the simplest of which are caused by
different subsurface bodies producing the same
anomaly on the surface.
Example: distinguishing between a small sphere of
large density and a large sphere of low density at
similar depths is impossible.
In some circumstances gravity maps may indicate
drillable prospect by locating salt domes and reefs
(because of their low density.

Seismic
What is it?
 The seismic methods are the most
widely used of all geophysical methods
used in petroleum exploration.
 Seismic Reflection is a method of
exploration geophysics that uses the
principles of seismology to estimate the
properties of the Earth's subsurface
from reflected seismic waves.
 Seismic methods measure seismic
velocity of rock layers to detect both
lateral and depth variations and the
objective is to determine the lithology
and geometry of the layers.
 A seismic wave can be thought of as
shock wave (elastic wave) or vibration
traveling through the ground.
 The rate of travel, or velocity, of the wave
is related to the density of the rock.
Seismicconcepts
Medium earth consists of several layers of rock,
which is between the layers of rock with another
rock layers can be different density and wave
speed response. According to Snell's law, can
seismic waves change direction when passing
through the boundary between the layers
because of refraction and reflection.

 Well data
 Basin fill history
 HC systems
• Able to image major depositional units
SeismicStrength & Limitations
• Able to identify potential source, reservoir,
and seal units
• Provides a stratigraphic framework within
which other data can be understood
The Limitations of Seismic Data
• Good areal coverage
The Strength of Seismic Data
• Limited vertical and lateral resolution: can’t
resolve “small” features
• Stratigraphic interpretation is limited by the
quality of the seismic data/imaging
• Seismic responses are non-unique – e.g., low
amplitude could be a massive sand or a thick
shale
• Typically we can’t “see” hydrocarbons

Gravity Method Measuring the variation in earths gravitational field caused by differences in the density of subsurface rocks Interpretation of gravity maps presents many problems, the simplest of which are caused by different subsurface bodies producing the same anomaly on the surface. Example: distinguishing between a small sphere of large density and a large sphere of low density at similar depths is impossible. In some circumstances gravity maps may indicate drillable prospect by locating salt domes and reefs (because of their low density.

  • 42. Seismic What is it?  The seismic methods are the most widely used of all geophysical methods used in petroleum exploration.  Seismic Reflection is a method of exploration geophysics that uses the principles of seismology to estimate the properties of the Earth's subsurface from reflected seismic waves.  Seismic methods measure seismic velocity of rock layers to detect both lateral and depth variations and the objective is to determine the lithology and geometry of the layers.  A seismic wave can be thought of as shock wave (elastic wave) or vibration traveling through the ground.  The rate of travel, or velocity, of the wave is related to the density of the rock.
  • 43. Seismicconcepts Medium earth consists of several layers of rock, which is between the layers of rock with another rock layers can be different density and wave speed response. According to Snell's law, can seismic waves change direction when passing through the boundary between the layers because of refraction and reflection.
