Exploratory Seismic Geophysical Study of the Khanuqah Structure Area

Khanuqah structure area carried as the geophysics exploration study of Jeribe Formation target, located in north Iraq within Salah Aldeen Governorate, has been used geophysical data represented by 2D seismic lines were executed exploratory surveys 27 lines, interpretations Petrel software (version 2018) based on required aims, which are determined to achieve an update structural model Fn. a gas reservoir.The results show Khanaqah includes five domes, general direction axis is northwest-southeast, gradient its slope from northwest structurally higher southwestern part lower, southeastern open basin that increases level depth relative mentioned part.Seismic sections showed at locations domes phenomenon inter-spacing reflectors tuning phenomena reservoirs reservoir direct index presence. To ensure tracking extensions director for presence, new technique convert 3D cube through reflections specifications publication khanaqah area, shows concerning gaseous presence Khanaouqa-1 well and disappearance Khanaouqa-2 well, it indicates relationship between location two wells structure, since shallower than means outside scope patch, this was confirmed derived site Khanoqa-1 did not appear Khanoqa-2.Due importance developing worthy field, research recommended drilling dome- B, whose coordinated penetrating Euphrates bearing mind Khanuqa-1 locate center nor evidence existence.
