Structural Interpretation of the E2.0x Reservoir in the KC Field using 3D Seismic and Well Logs: A Case Study from the Eastern Niger Delta

Abstract

The 3D seismic data interpretation was done on the shallow horizon E2.0X to provide structural and stratigraphic interpretation at this level. The KC field is located in OML-28 in the central swamp depobelt of the eastern Niger Delta. The structural interpretation showed positive indices for hydrocarbon prospect. The seismic and well data were used in the interpretation study. The seismic interpretation suggests that structural closure exists in the horizon mapped. It is characterized by a faulted rollover anticlinal structure, which is one of the major structural traps in the Niger Delta. The growth faults are conspicuously observed in the structural maps and the seismic sections run in this field.
