Abstract:The Faja Petrolífera del Orinoco (FPO) in Venezuela is the most extensive accumulation of heavy oil in the world. Consequently, the main objective is to use 3D-3C multicomponent seismic data for sandstone discrimination in the Petrocedeño block in the FPO, with the aim of providing information that contributes to better characterization of heavy-oil deposits. Log-and seismic-frequency-scale rockphysics analysis for lithology discrimination was performed, revealing that sandstones and shales might be discrimina… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
