Abstract

Abstract —The paper focuses on the wide-azimuth, broadband, and high-density (WBH) seismic data application methodology, which was used to complete a more detailed structural interpretation of the K oilfield, to identify a number of low-relief structures in its periclinal parts, and to detect the potential residual oil zones (ROZ) in the oilfield. The obtained wide-azimuth, high-density field data and the results of broadband inversion are the main factors that increase the degree of ROZ prediction. A comprehensive analysis has shown that potential ROZ are arched faulted-nose structures in the periclinal parts of the oilfield, low-relief anticlines in the periclinal parts of the oilfield, and lithologic pinchout zones. Technical support has been provided for identifying ROZ in the given oilfield, and the basis has been laid for predicting the residual oil distribution in analogous oilfields with high productivity and high water cut that are at the middle and late stages of development.
