Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Summary The results of 2D full-stack seismic inversion technology for predicting reservoir properties applied to the area under the study area within Triassic succession of the south-east Pre-Caspian sedimentary basin. Hydrocarbons, mostly oil trapped by salt dome wall and faults. Full-stack seismic lines, wireline logging data and seismic velocity were integrated to generate P-impedance volume. The porosity was estimated from the relationship between the absolute P-Impedance result and the porosity effective at the well locations. Generally, low P-Impedance or high porosity packages over the area indicate higher probability of hydrocarbon sands in the Reservoir interval. The localized high P-Impedance at the Reservoir interval at the northern part of area could reveal the distribution of the micro-conglomerate reservoir, however more geological-geophysical should be integrated to interpret anomalous geobodies. Data obtained allows concluding that it is not possible to discriminate the distribution of the hydrocarbon sands due to strong overlap of the acoustic impedance of the hydrocarbon bearing sands and the background lithology.
