IDENTIFCATION OF HIGH VELOCITY ANOMALIES, IMPERCEPTIBLE TO SEISMIC RESOLUTION, BY INTEGRATION OF SEISMIC ATTRIBUTES, IN PENOBSCOT FIELD, CANADA
Penobscot Field is located in the Sable Sub-basin, in the Nova Scotia Basin, belonging to the Canadian territory, and for the year of 1991, a 3D seismic acquisition was carried out in this region. Also, two exploratory wells were previously drilled (L-30 and B-41). Then, with the subsequent interpre...
