Abstract:This regional study proposes a regional evaluation of the petroleum potential of the Brazilian Equatorial Margin (EQM), based on the analysis of exploratory plays, in the geological context of the sedimentary basins that compose it. A methodological approach is adopted where plays are the key geological concept and the Geographic Information System (GIS) is the computational tool. The first step is the mapping of the plays' factors (charge, reservoir and trap systems). Subsequently, using geoprocessing techniq… Show more
