Viking Graben, North Sea
GeoStreamer PURE Viking Graben offers ~18 000 sq. km of 100% broadband GeoStreamer depth data and provides the structural overview and reservoir details you need to unlock new leads and opportunities in this region. Shown with the orange outline alongside adjacent PGS data library coverage in the area.
Thin sand bodies called injectites are abundant in the area and have extremely high porosity and permeability making them potential targets with very high production rates. The challenge is that injectites are thin, difficult to resolve and require detailed prestack broadband GeoStreamer processing and characterization.
Recently reprocessed broadband GeoStreamer data contains both high and low frequencies to resolve thin sand bodies (injectites), reduce sidelobe artifacts, and allow accurate reflector picking. A regional rock physics approach using well data from fields and discoveries provides information on the elastic properties of reservoir lithology and fluid content. The prestack GeoStreamer data shows good correlation with the rock physics analysis and provides reliable estimations of rock and fluid properties away from the wells. Proving therefore that GeoStreamer data help derisk the interpretation and evaluation of these sand bodies.
Previously unresolved injectites have been uncovered with merged and reprocessed GeoStreamer data over this large area. Good correlation is observed between GeoStreamer-derived elastic properties and well-log attributes. This type of detailed analysis can unlock nearfield potential, resulting in new fields, like Frosk.
