Challenges of the Seismic Image Resolution for Gas Exploration in the East Mediterranean Sea

Abstract

Some discoveries in the East Mediterranean have been made in recent years, and production has begun. In 2015, the most promising exploration was the Zohr field off-shore Egypt. Many 2D/3D marine seismic acquisition surveys were conducted using improved technology to obtain a higher resolution image of the subsurface Mediterranean. Optimal acquisition and processing parameterization are required to obtain higher resolution subsurface images.
