Why site surveys?
“Site surveys are performed to minimise the risk of harm to personnel and
equipment, and to protect the natural environment. The objective of any site
survey is to identify all possible constraints and hazards from man-made,
natural and geological features which may affect the operational or
environmental integrity of a proposed drilling operation…”

Why interpretation?
Data are plain facts or measurement results. It is not enough to have data.
Data in themselves are fairly useless.
But when these data are processed and interpreted to determine there true meaning, they
become useful and can be called information.
Reference: Data, information and knowledge: Have we got it right? - M. Boisot and A. Canals, UOC Working Paper Series WP04-002 (2004).

Seismic interpretation for site surveys
Purpose of 2DHR interpretation for a site survey …
• Prognosis of Stratigraphy and Lithology
• Identification of potential drilling constraints and geohazards at the sub-seabed levels
… down to about 1000 m below seabed.

Shallow gas warning levels
• Distance to amplitude anomalies
• Structural / stratigraphical traps
• Geological setting (e.g. up dip position, potential migration paths, lithology)
• Experience from neighboring wells and regional understanding
• Comparability between planned well location and neighboring wells
• Relationship between shallow gas and amplitude anomalies
The level of warning is determined from following factors:
No shallow gas is expected at the planned well location.
No seismic indications for the presence of shallow gas have been identified at or near the planned well location.
No warning
Shallow gas cannot be excluded at the planned well location.
Seismic indications for the presence of shallow gas have been identified at or near the planned well location.
However, alternative interpretations are possible. The implementation of sufficient mitigation measures is
recommended.
Slight warning
Shallow gas is expected at the planned well location.
Strong seismic indications for the presence of shallow gas have been identified at or near the planned well
location. Alternative interpretations are unlikely. A relocation of the planned well is recommended.
Serious warning
A three level scale is used to describe a shallow gas hazard. These warning levels assess the
probability of occurrence of shallow gas at a particular planned well location.

Mapping amplitude anomalies
1. Amplitude anomalies are grouped into intervals based on stratigraphy and interpretation.
2. Maximum amplitude values within these intervals are calculated using tools in IHS Kingdom Suite.
3. A threshold value is defined for each interval to separate anomalous high amplitudes.
4. Areas with amplitudes above the threshold value (= anomalies) are mapped.

Create a workflow
• To be used for all interpreted seismic data
• To standardize the information populated in the
database
• Easy to use
Requirements for the workflow
• Need to populate the Seabed Survey Data Model
(SSDM) feature classes and attributes
• Data is to be used in figures for the report and in
presentations
• Data is to be used in charts
• Data is to be used in Web Map applications
• Need to be able to search and filter the data based
on location and attributes
• Data is to be visualized in 3D

Steps for creating 3D Web Scenes in ArcScene
• Symbolize vector data with 3D symbology
• Create line features with xyz for point features that
should be shown vertically
• Drape raster and vector layers that do not have z-
values on bathymetry and horizons
• Create bookmarks of features to be shown
Export ArcScene file to WebScene
Extensions
• 3D Analyst
• Seismic Explorer from Geocap
