Our history dating as far back as 1937 when the first marine survey started, and through 1976 when the first 3D survey was acquired. From this time to date, our understanding of salt tectonics and Deepwater exploration continues to grow. We’ve implemented advances in our technologies to enable the imaging of complex basins. Starting with a narrow azimuth, single-vessel mode of acquisition we grew to a full azimuth, multivessel operation. Along with our survey design, imaging techniques have also advanced to include Ref-FWI and LSRTM for better illumination beneath the salt. Model building is improved as subsurface understanding is enhanced and multidomain data increases. Finally, with the onset of OBN data we now have a new and improved reservoir perspective in the GOM. As of 2017, WesternGeco has been incorporating cloud-based technologies into its workflows to complement these advancements, such as machine learning for processing and interpretation to further accelerate our capabilities of hydrocarbon discovery.\u0000When CNH announced the deregulation of Oil and Gas exploration in Mexico, WesternGeco took its US “Deepwater” lessons and rapidly entered the Mexico GOM with the intention of helping the government and operators accelerate hydrocarbon discovery. With our technical and financial commitments, we accomplished the equivalent of what was done in US GOM in 7 years, in less than 3 years! Our new technologies combined with gravity and magnetic acquisition provided the foundations for integrated Deepwater prospectivity evaluation. Our experience and expertise in the US GOM, combined with fit-for-purpose technology, were the fundamental success factors in accelerating exploration activities and recent discoveries in Mexico.\u0000But it doesn’t stop here, our progress continues through digital transformation. Exploration is digitally re-invented, for faster updates of play and trap models at full resolution from basin to prospect scale. All these advancements are contributing to accelerate discoveries in Mexico and will have a big impact on the development of Mexico’s GOM.","PeriodicalId":335882,"journal":{"name":"Second EAGE Workshop on Deepwater Exploration in Mexico: Knowledge transfer and collaboration from shelf to deepwater","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128421669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ability to detect sub-seismic faults and fracture rich zones on the seismic image requires advanced workflows. The result of being able to identify small fault and fractures enables optimal well path designs and de-risking of target locations. This presentation will demonstrate a multi-attribute workflow which includes volumetric curvature parameter optimization, directional GLCM (gray-level co-occurrence matrix) based attributes, and post processing enhancement with 3D Log-Gabor filtering. Comparison between volumetric curvature and texture classification based on GLCM is carried out in order to get an estimation of fracture corridor orientations. An array of sectors response from GLCM-based attributes can be calculated in different directions by inspecting and comparing these different sectors. Areas with clear tendency to directional variations might be associated with fractured zones, changes in lithology, or seismic facies changes. Based on these analyzes it was possible to identify highly fractured zones congruous with the geological model. The main trend shows parallelism with the main faults and a secondary is interpreted as a direct expression of the salt influence. These observations are consistent with modeled anticline generated by salt tectonics and limited by main sealing faults. This methodology was used to predict the fractured zones on top of the Cretaceous brecciated carbonates in the Gulf of Mexico that are the most important reservoirs in the Salinas Basin.","PeriodicalId":335882,"journal":{"name":"Second EAGE Workshop on Deepwater Exploration in Mexico: Knowledge transfer and collaboration from shelf to deepwater","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121786214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Biomarker analysis of hydrocarbons recovered from the sea floor sediments by piston cores, indicate an aligned pattern of fluid type distribution (oil-gas) with a predominant Upper Jurassic carbonate-rich source rock affinity. On the other hand, based on regional subsurface interpretation, the potential Upper Jurassic source rocks in this region are found at depths well above the gas window. Therefore, it seems that there is no correspondence between oil shows observed on the seabed and the type of hydrocarbons that the source rocks might be expelling at present day. \u0000\u0000The objective of this work is to evaluate the petroleum system elements burial history and the thermal-pressure regimes through geological time, responsible for the timing of oil and gas expulsion and fluid migration from deep thermogenic sources.
