A big tendency in oil industry is underestimating the heterogeneity of the reservoir and overestimating the connectivity, which results in overly optimistic estimates of the capacity. With the development of seismic attributes, we could pick up hidden reservoir lithology and physical property information from the actual seismic data, strengthen seismic data application in actual work, to ensure the objectivity of the results. In this paper, the channel sand body distribution in south eighth district of oilfield Saertu is predicted through seismic data root-mean-square amplitude and frequency division to identify sand body boundaries, predict the distribution area channel sand body characteristics successfully, which consistent with the sedimentary facies distribution. The result proves that seismic attribute analysis has good practicability in channel sand body prediction and sedimentary facies description.

An integrated geological and geophysical approach is presented for the recognition of unconventional targets in the Miocene formations of the Carpathian Foredeep, southern Poland. The subject of the analysis is an unconventional reservoir built of interlayered packets of sandstone, mudstone and claystone, called a “heterogeneous sequence”. This type of sequence acts as both a reservoir and as source rock for hydrocarbons and it consists of layers of insignificant thickness, below the resolution of seismic data. The interpretation of such a sequence has rarely been based on seismic stratigraphy analysis; however, such an approach is proposed here. The subject of interpretation is high-quality seismic data of high resolution that enable detailed depositional analysis. The reconstruction of the depositional history was possible due to the analysis of flattened chronostratigraphic horizons (Wheeler diagram). The identification of depositional positions in a sedimentary basin was the first step for the indication of potential target areas. These areas were also subject to seismic attribute analysis (sweetness) and spectral decomposition. The seismic attribute results positively verified the previously proposed prospects. The results obtained demonstrate that the interpretation of the Miocene sediments in the Carpathian Foredeep should take into account the depositional history reconstruction and paleogeographical analysis.
