Abstract
The 3D seismic survey is the undisputed leader among tools of identifying potential exploration targets and reservoir characterization. This paper shows surveys that are crucial in the exploration and development of significant amounts of hydrocarbon resources, and enables operator companies to map complex geological structures and select better drilling locations. The purpose of the research is to have better understandings of formations and update previous studies in the oil field of Mangyshlak Basin, Western Kazakhstan. The Main results are the acoustic impedance, Vp/Vs ratio, lithological and reservoir properties data. The quality controls and analysis of results show a good match with well logs and good recovery of seismic signal in inversion, but it should be improved in some areas. The results, from a scientific point of view, expand the already known geological and geophysical studies of the reservoir and improve the quality of interpretation using seismic methods in studying the sedimentation environment.
