Abstract:Based on merged 3D seismic data, we conduct a study of stratighaphy, faults and structures in the Block X, South Turgay Basin, Kazakhstan. Using seismic attributes, we analyze amplitude anomalies of some layers. The following observations are obtained: A. A continuously developed uplift in the Paleozoic basement might be a preferable target for hydrocarbon migration; faults together with unconformity and permeable sandstones in the area form a nice dredge system for hydrocarbon. B. Adjacent to oil source and presented as high, buried hills with developed fractures in the basement may be favorable drilling targets. C. Structures or traps close to oil source at shallow depth may be also favorable targets for the future exploration.
