Printing Instructions:
one document, 5 pages, letter size, B&W student instructions
one document, 1 page, 11x17 inches, B&W basemap
one document, 4 pages, 11x17 inches, B&W 4 seismic lines
Supplies:
color pencils, eraser, regular mailing envelop, ‘funny money’
Slide 1
Basemap showing how the area has been divided into 18 Blocks and the location of the four given lines and the 5 additional lines available for purchase
Slide 2
Part of one of the given lines showing the 3 interpreted horizons:
S = top of Smackover carbonates – top of reservoir interval
L = top of Louann Salt – base of reservoir interval
B = top of Triassic Basement (Eagle Mills)
(Continued on next slide)
Slide 3
Same seismic line as on slide 2, but some internal reflections are marked in red
The carbonate mounds that form reservoirs in the Smackover show non-parallel internal reflections
Where the reflections indicate moundy, wave geometries, this is a potentail reservoir target
(Continued on next slide)
Slide 4
Same seismic line as on slides 2 and 3, but where the internal reflections are not parallel, highlighting has been added
This indicates a potential reservoir
We note the shot point numbers where the 'moundy' reflection pattern begins and ends
Slide 5
The potential reservoir extent is marked (in red) on the basemap
