Applications of Amplitude versus Offset and Seismic Attributes for Perceiving Messinian Reservoirs in Nidoco Field, Nile Delta, Egypt

Nile Delta which covers approximately 60,000 square kilometers represents the most important gas province in Egypt whereas its fields provide two-thirds of production Egypt. The begins to display hydrocarbon potentiality early 1960s. Nidoco field is located shallow water offshore delta. Abu Madi formation (Messinian age) through all section where it main producing reservoirs Field. coming from two sand reservoir levels; level 2&3 are characterized by fluvial-deltaic sandstones. purpose this paper perceive Messinian bearing and channelized distribution inside using seismic attributes amplitude versus offset (AVO) technique. results indicated that AVO aided give a complete picture about characterization field. Also show there still promising locations prospective Level proposed be drilled
