S U M M A R Y The variation of frequency-dependent seismic wave attenuation with direction (attenuation anisotropy) contains additional information to that contained in velocity anisotropy. In particular, it has the potential to distinguish between different mechanisms that can cause velocity anisotropy. For example, aligned fracturing might be expected to cause measurable velocity and attenuat...

Introduction And Geologic Overview The Upper Jurassic (Oxfordian) Smackover Formation is a stratigraphically complex carbonate formation, and a major producer of hydrocarbons in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico (Baria et al., 1982; Salvador, 1991). The main reservoir facies in the Smackover Formation are the microbial reefs, which were formed in a gently sloping to distally steepened carbonate r...

[1] We report on seismic and petrological data that provide new constraints on the geological evolution of the Amerasia Basin. A seismic reflection transect across the Makarov Basin, located between the Mendeleev and Lomonosov Ridges, shows a complete undisturbed sedimentary section of Mesozoic/Cenozoic age. In contrast to the Mendeleev Ridge, the margin of the Lomonosov Ridge is wide and shows...

Abstract Kutai basin hydrocarbon’s potential is not only in the delta area but extends to deepwater of East Kalimantan. The result integration method based on petrophysical, inversion, and seismic multiattribute aim delineate gas reservoir zone research area. rocks consist graywacke sublitharenite Upper Miocene sandstone with an average shale volume content 19%, porosity 23%, water saturation 5...

the subject of divine will is discussed in three views of imammieh, moatazeleh, and ashaereh scholars. in views of them, god has will, however, there are differences between their beliefs: is divine will a substance attribute or an attribute surplus to substance is divine will an ancient or created attribute is divine will an affirmative or privative attribute is divine will a real or unreal at...
