Survey design comparison regarding seismic reservoir characterization objectives: a case study from South Tunisia

Survey design comparison regarding seismic reservoir characterization objectives: a case study from South Tunisia L. Michou, L. Michel, P. Herrmann, T. Coleou, P.Feugere, J.L. Formento The objective of this onshore survey designs’ comparison case study is to highlight the impact of the acquisition trace density on seismic reservoir characterization in order to optimize acquisition geometries. Structural, AVO and AVAz seismic reservoir attributes and QCs from 4 seismic surveys over the same area, the Jebel Grouz South Tunisian field, are compared. Results highlight the added value of the acquisition trace density in comparison to the source strength or the source and receiver proportion, especially for elastic and anisotropic seismic reservoir characterizations.
