Abstract

Seismic Attribute Analysis and Reservoir Characterization of ‘George Field’ offshore Niger
Delta was carried out with a view to determining the hydrocarbon potential of the area. The data
set used for the study includes three dimensional seismic data and a suite of geophysical well
logs from four wells A, B, C and D. In order to further confirm the presence of hydrocarbon in
the identified structures, attribute analysis was carried out. The energy and the amplitude
attribute extraction maps and the instantaneous frequency volume attributes maps for the
reservoirs were generated. The trapping mechanism is a fault assisted closure. The amplitude,
average energy and instantaneous frequency extraction maps revealed higher values around the
structural highs which coincide with the locations where producing wells A, B, C and D had
already been drilled thereby validating earlier interpretations that led to their drilling.
