Abstract

One of the most common and established techniques to identify hydrocarbon presence is by analyzing the amplitude variation with offset (AVO) utilizing the pre-stack seismic data. However, the gather data quality even the availability of pre-stack data could often become an issue. When the seismic wave propagates through a highly attenuating medium (i.e. hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir), it loses its high-frequency content and the dominant frequency tends to slide to the lower frequency. These high-frequency loss phenomena can be used to delineate hydrocarbon-bearing reservoirs using spectral decomposition method. The continuous wavelet transform (CWT) is used to decompose seismic and generate the frequency gather data to analyze the frequency loss due to hydrocarbon presence using gradient analysis. The result from this study shows that the hydrocarbon-bearing zone correlates to the high attenuation is able to be delineated using the Amplitude Variation with Frequency (AVF) analysis method. The hydrocarbon anomaly observed from the AVF analysis result is aligned with the AVO analysis and validated by the water saturation log. The results of this study suggest that AVF analysis method can help to identify as a quick look approach and provide a better confidence level as a direct hydrocarbon indicator when combined with other direct hydrocarbon indicator methods such as AVO method.
