Abstract
Interpretation of the integrated geophysical methods has been carried out at October Oil field,
central part of the Gulf of Suez, Egypt aiming at outlining the subsurface geological structures, delineating their
tectonic trends, evaluating the petrophysical properties of the studied reservoir and finally, suggesting the best
locations of promising new prospects for future exploration. Potential field methods (magnetic and gravity), seismic
reflection interpretation and well logging analysis were used to achieve our target. One major fault bounding the tilted
fault-blocks in October Field trending NW of the Red Sea System, in addition to, a one NE-trending cross-fault of the
Syrian Arc System were found. Hydrocarbon potential is also evaluated using the available five wells clarifying that
four of them are producing wells, while the fifth one is a dry well. New prospects for future exploration were also
proposed.
