ABSTRACT
An integrated approach using seismic information was employed for subsurface mapping of WIZZY reservoir of the Niger Delta basin. This study was aimed towards determining how prolific the study field is in hydrocarbon exploration. The methods employed include analysis of 3D seismic data using Petrel software: faults and horizon deductions from the seismic section were used to generate structural maps and maps revealing amplitude. A distinct horizon was mapped. From the horizon a plexus of faults were mapped for the purpose of carrying 3D subsurface structural interpretation. These were used in in generating the time structure maps using the Petrel Interpretational tool. The results show that the trapping mechanisms in the field are favorable for hydrocarbon accumulation. This study has demonstrated the importance of seismic structural interpretation in generation of subsurface maps of reservoir, understanding the structural styles present, amplitude extraction for prospect ranking.
