| Abstract | ||
| The Temsah field is located in eastern part of the Nile delta to seaward. The main reservoirs of the area are Middle Pliocene mainly consist from siliciclastic which associated with a close deep marine environment. The Distribution pattern of the reservoir facies is limited scale indicating fast lateral and vertical changes which are not easy to resolve by applying of conventional seismic attribute. The target of the present study is to create geophysical workflows to a better image of the channel sand distribution in the study area. We apply both Average Absolute Amplitude and Energy attribute which are indicated on the distribution of the sand bodies in the study area but filled to fully described the channel geometry. So another tool, which offers more detailed geometry description is needed. The spectral decomposition analysis method is an alternative technique focused on processing Discrete Fourier Transform which can provide better results. Spectral decomposition have been done over the upper channel shows that the frequency in the eastern part of the channel is the same frequency in places where the wells are drilled, which confirm the connection of both the eastern and western parts of the upper channel. Results suggest that application of the spectral decomposition method leads to reliable inferences. Hence, using the spectral decomposition method alone or along with other attributes has a positive impact on reserves growth and increased production where the reserve in the study area increases to 75bcf. | ||
