| Abstract | Understanding sequence stratigraphy by applying seismic attributes can contribute for a better knowledge of the basin evolution and to predict possible hydrocarbon bearing zones, over the southern Rovuma Basin Mozambique offshore. The study comprises sequence stratigraphic analysis to determine stratigraphic architecture within 3 to 5 seconds of the 3D seismic. The seismic reflections in the 3D volume can be used to map structures and amplitude patterns that are interpreted to determine the prospective areas of having hydrocarbon bearing potential zones. The 3D seismic cube observations and analyses were integrated with one well data located approximately 80 Km to the North East direction. The well was matched with the 3D seismic by using 2D regional seismic lines to improve the well tie to the seismic. Analysis of the stratigraphic sequences in the study interval identified 3 megasequences S2, S3 and S4, bounded by SB1, SB2, SB3 and SB4 respectively. Significant potential hydrocarbons bearing zones for exploration successes in the study interval were identified on isolated carbonates buildups ICB's described as having developed a during transgressive when accommodation was greater than sediment supply. This resulted in a retrogradational coastal trajectory at the base of S4, and progradational features that indicate highstand deposits and sediments supply from North direction on the top of sequence 4. Migration pathways are related to faults that act as likely fluids conduits from lower to upper sequences. Sequences 3 and 4 are the potential reservoirs, source rock are associated to the deepest sequence. Good quality sand reservoirs are focused to paleo-geomorphologic features identified by seismic attribute analysis integrated with depositional environment studies to predict the spatial distribution and quality of these reservoirs. |
