Seismic velocity problems associated with Cretaceous-Tertiary carbonate sediments that overlie oil and gas fields of the North West Shelf

西北陆架油气田上覆白垩纪-第三纪碳酸盐岩沉积的地震速度问题合作伙伴石油公司和墨尔本大学之间的这项合作研究的主要目的是了解与澳大利亚热带碳酸盐沉积物相关的地震速度问题。西北大陆架。这些问题可能会阻碍这些碳酸盐岩下的油气勘探工作。该项目是一项多方面的研究，将涉及地震地层学与沉积学、微古生物学和地球物理数据的整合。下面概述的方法将支持任何地震深度偏移应用，从而有助于新油气田的划定，并有助于估计现有油田的储量

Seismic velocity problems associated with Cretaceous-Tertiary carbonate sediments that overlie oil and gas fields of the North West Shelf. The major aim of this collaborative study between Partner Oil Companies and The University of Melbourne is to understand seismic velocity problems associated with tropical carbonate sediments on Australias? North West Shelf. These problems can hinder the hydrocarbon exploration efforts below these carbonates. The project is a multi faceted study and will involve integration of seismic stratigraphy with sedimentological, micropaleontological, and geophysical data. The methods outlined below would underpin any seismic depth migration applications, thereby assisting with the delineation of new gas and oil fields, and help with the estimation of reserves in existing fields.\r\n\r\n
