    Seismic Structural interpretation of subsurface system is a vital tool in mapping source rocks and good trapping system which enhances good understanding of the subsurface system for productive drilling operation. This study is geared towards mapping the structural traps available within the hydrocarbon bearing zones of the “High field” with the use of well log and 3D seismic data. Seven horizons (H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6 and H7) were identified on well logs using gamma ray log and resistivity logs. Nine (9) faults were mapped on seismic sections across the field, two (2) of which are major growth faults (F1 and F2), two (2) synthetic faults (F3 and F7) and five (5) antithetic faults (F4, F5, F6, F8 and F9). Rollover anticlines which are structural closure and displayed on the depth structural maps suggest probable hydrocarbon accumulation at the down throw side of the fault F1. Structural interpretation of high field has revealed a highly fault assisted reservoir which depicts the tectonic setting of Niger Delta basin.

    Seismic Interpretation and Petrophysical Analysis for Evaluation of Ataga Field, Onshore Niger Delta, Nigeria.
    (The Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management (JASEM), 2022-11-05) EHINLAIYE, M.D.; OSISANYA, O.W.; IGHRAKPATA, F.C.; SALEH, A.S.; IBITOYE, T.A.
    The majority of geophysical survey in hydrocarbon exploration and production sector is driven by the ability to describe reservoirs. This research is aimed at describing the interpretation and petrophysical analysis of the reservoirs in Ataga field Niger Delta using a combination of seismic and well-log data. The Ataga Field in the Niger Delta was subjected to 3-D seismic interpretation and petrophysical study to perform comprehensive structural interpretation, prospect evaluation, and volumetric calculation. Two reservoir windows “1” and “2” were identified and correlated from four wells ATA 10, ATA 11, ATA 5 and ATA 7. Detailed evaluation was done on well ATA 11 since it is the only well that has sufficient data for both qualitative and quantitative interpretation. Structural interpretation for inline 5731 revealed fifteen faults on the seismic vertical section through ATA 11, most of which are antithetic faults while the rest are synthetic faults. Top and base of each reservoir window was delineated from the well. Result of the petrophysical assessment of reservoir A, B and C for ATA 11 revealed that the porosity values range from (24 29) % which are indicative of very good to excellent porosity value according to Rider (1996). While the permeability values range from (1887-2582) mD were obtained from the three reservioir A, B and C of ATA 11 which depict very good to excellent reservoir units. Since, .all of the wells were discovered to have hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir formations (sandstones), the integration of structural interpretation and well logs have successfully revealed that the reservoirs are mostly oil-bearing zones.
