Abstract:
Based on the results of numerous seismic studies carried out in the areas and fields of the Dnipro-Donets depression, the strategy to identify hydrocarbon traps in this region has been developed taking into account modern requirements for prospecting and exploration of gas and oil fields. The studies are designed to determine the favorable zones of hydrocarbon accumulations based on the analysis of the structural-tectonic model. A necessary element for solving such a problem is to aaply direct indicators of hydrocarbons to predict traps of the structural, lithological or combined type. It was determined that an effective approach to identify hydrocarbon traps in the region is attribute analysis employing seismic attributes such as seismic envelope, acoustic impedance or relative acoustic impedance. In most cases of practical importance, the analysis of the distribution of the values of these attributes turned out to be sufficient for performing the geological tasks. It is given an example of extracting additional useful information on the spatial distribution of hydrocarbon traps from volumetric images obtained from seismograms of common sources with a limited range of ray angles inclinations. To analyze the distributions of seismic attribute values, it is recommended to use the Geobody technology for detecting geological bodies as the most effective when using volumetric seismic data. The distributions of various properties of rocks, including zones of increased porosity or zones of presence of hydrocarbons are determined depending on the types of seismic attributes used in the analysis,. The use of several seismic attributes makes it possible to identify geological bodies saturated with hydrocarbons with increased porosity and the like. The paper provides examples of hydrocarbon traps recognition in the areas and fields of the Dnipro-Donets depression practically proved by wells. A generalization on the distribution of promising hydrocarbon areas on the Northern flank of the Dnipro-Donets depression and the relationship of this distribution with the identified structural elements of the geological subsoil is made.

Abstract:
Based on the results of numerous seismic surveys conducted on the areas and deposits of the northern side of the Dnieper-Donetsk depression, an appropriate strategy for detecting hydrocarbon traps in this region has been determined. This takes into account modern requirements for exploration and prospecting of gas and oil deposits. They consist in determining the probable zones of accumulation of hydrocarbons based on the analysis of the structural-tectonic model. At the same time, the use of direct hydrocarbon indicators to predict structural, lithological or combined traps is also a necessary element in solving this problem. It has been shown that an effective approach to detecting hydrocarbon traps in this region is attribute analysis using seismic attributes such as seismic signal envelope, acoustic impedance or relative acoustic impedance. In most practically important cases, the analysis of the distribution of values of these attributes was sufficient to solve geological problems. At the same time, an example of extracting additional useful information on the spatial distribution of hydrocarbon traps from volumetric seismic images obtained from seismograms of common sources with a limited range of seismic angle inclinations is given. To analyze the distributions of seismic attribute values it is recommended to use geobody technology as the most effective one when using volumetric seismic data. Depending on the combination of seismic attributes involved in the analysis, the distributions of different properties of rocks are determined, in particular the zone of increased porosity or the presence of hydrocarbons. Analysis with the simultaneous use of several seismic attributes allows to directly identify hydrocarbon-rich geological bodies with high porosity and the like. The paper presents examples of detection of hydrocarbon traps in the areas and deposits of the northern side of the Dnieper-Donetsk depression, which are confirmed by drilled wells. An example of providing recommendations for wells drilling using the distributions of values of different seismic attributes is given. Generalizations are made on the distribution of promising areas for the presence of hydrocarbons on the northern side of the Dnieper-Donetsk depression and the ratio of this distribution with the identified structural elements of the geological environment.

Abstract:
The paper presents the results of the study of main factors determining conditions of formation and distribution of oil and gas deposits within the Cenozoic sedimentary cover and Precenozoic granite basement of the Vietnam shelf. The structural and tectonic model of the Kyulong basin constructed by the authors allows to reveal the conditions of formation of regional and local structures in the sedimentary cover containing hydrocarbon deposits; mechanisms of hydrocarbon traps emergence and hollow space (collectors); genesis of hydrocarbons, including the hydrocarbons existed in the basement rocks; the possible mechanism of migration and accumulation of hydrocarbons in the basement rocks. The traps which are real or potential reservoirs of hydrocarbons in the body of a crystal socle are widely developed. The structural and tectonic processes in the basement itself resulted in the development of positive morfostructures (domes, protrusions) the cores of which are made of disintegrated (granulated) rocks of a crystalline cap. In order to reconstruct the chronothermobaric conditions of occurrence and evolution of hydrocarbon generation centers and to restore the conditions of formation and distribution patterns of oil and gas accumulations on the shelf of Vietnam, three-dimensional modeling of generation and accumulation hydrocarbon systems was performed using the basin modeling technology and PetroMod software (Schlumberger, Ltd, USA). Studies of hydrocarbon biomarkers of oil fields in the Kyulong basin, including those located in the crystalline basement have shown the similarity of biomarker parameters of oil and organic matter, which demonstrates the organic nature of the oil fields of the basement on the shelf of Vietnam

Abstract:
To date, most of the oil and gas production in Cuu Long Basin (CLB) is contributed from structural traps, making them more and more depleted after years of exploitation. Exploration activities in CLB, therefore, are shifting towards other traps, including stratigraphic and/or combination ones. The results of exploration and appraisal activities in recent years have increasingly discovered more hydrocarbons in the Oligocene section; some of them were discovered in combination/ stratigraphic traps. Many studies on Oligocene targets in Southeast CLB have been carried out but only a few mention nonstructural traps. This leads to uncertainty about the forming mechanisms and distribution, as well as unevaluated hydrocarbon potential of these traps. An integrated approach- utilizing methods of seismic sequence stratigraphy, seismic attribute interpretation, and petrophysical/ petrographical analysis- was applied in this research to identify the forming mechanisms of Oligocene combination/ stratigraphic traps in southeast area of CLB and to evaluate their reservoir quality. The research results show that the key forming factor for stratigraphic traps of sand body is lithology change and the one for pinch-out stratigraphic traps is tapering off of sand layers landward or toward the horsts. The reservoir quality of these traps ranges from moderate to good. By integratedly applying the methods, the forming mechanisms and reservoir quality of Oligocene stratigraphic traps could be delineated. In order to optimize the next-stage exploration strategy in CLB, detailed studies on petroleum system, especially top and bottom seals, and the hydrocarbon potential of these stratigraphic traps, need to be carried out.

Abstract:
With the further and high level of hydrocarbon exploration and development in China even around the world, the hydrocarbon exploration tend to be the fine and comprehensive exploration and targets are mainly plays or traps, the structural trap, is the mainly exploration targets, will gradually give way to the alternative exploration objects, the litho-stratigraphic traps, which are more subtle and competitive. Therefore, the new trap evaluation theory model needed to be work out to speed up the hydrocarbon exploration. According to the characteristics of the hydrocarbon traps exploration at present stage, this paper deeply analyzes the trap evaluation contents and characteristics, on the basis of combination with the qualitative and quantitative comprehensive research of trap evaluation parameters, the essential evaluation model is corresponding to traps is established finally.

Abstract:
The hydrocarbon trap evaluation is theoretical guidance for the practical exploration of hydrocarbon traps, the present complicated exploration targets requires the conclusion of hydrocarbon trap evaluation more scientific and reliable so as to adapt to the requirement of high frequency, high precision trap exploration. With the guidance of system theory and modern scientific evaluation theory, modern hydrocarbon traps evaluation has already become a system engineering, which obviously characterized by the comprehensive evaluation, quantitative evaluation and comprehensive decision. In this paper the comprehensive evaluation system for hydrocarbon traps has been established, it indicated that the comprehensive evaluation tends to be a whole procedure which involves such aspects including evaluation contents, data, methods, techniques, and evaluation process specifically, so its main components includes: evaluation object characteristics, theoretical guidance, evaluation contents, methods, techniques, and database establishment. Furthermore, it emphasize closely on the analysis of the exploration objects, focus on the comprehensive geological research, supported by scientific exploration and thinking and computer technology, considered evaluation method and technology research as the key contents, and finally enable to provide reference for the modern hydrocarbon trap exploration when it appear to become increasingly complicated and subtle.

Abstract:
As oil and gas production has been going on over a few decades, conventional plays such as pre-Tertiary fractured basement highs and Cenozoic structural traps become more and more exhausted, and the remaining targets of the same type do not have sufficient reserves for development and production. Exploration activities in Cuu Long basin, therefore, are shifting towards more complicating types of plays which are stratigraphic traps and combination traps. Several researches were conducted in southeastern marginal slope and indicated the possibility of stratigraphic pinch-out traps with insufficient petroleum system and low hydrocarbon potential. In spite of many researches, there are still difficulties in defining the distribution and in evaluating hydrocarbon potential of these traps, so seismic stratigraphy analysis in accompanied with interpretation of seismic attribute and well logs is very necessary to support this problem. Seismic stratigraphic analysis on seismic sections, in agreement with seismic attributes’ and log analysis’ findings, show that the stratigraphic/combination traps in Oligocene C and D were formed during lowstand system tract as sigmoid-oblique clinoforms downlapping onto underlying strata in distributary mouths/delta settings. The integration of seismic attribute analysis and well log interpretation has further defined the fan-shaped distribution of these traps. Thus, using various methods, the stratigraphic traps can be better revealed. Further studies, however, need to be carried out to fully evaluate hydrocarbon potential of these stratigraphic/ combination traps, and minimize risks in exploration drilling.

Abstract:
This thesis uses high-quality 3D seismic data from the Broad Fourteens Basin (Southern North Sea), Espírito Santo Basin (SE Brazil), and Taranaki Basin (New Zealand) to characterise the evolution of geological structures related to differential compaction and subsidence; also known as subtle hydrocarbon traps. Each chapter tackles deformation over a different geological feature, spanning from salt-withdrawal basins, to submarine channel complexes and associated mass-transport deposits. These chapters subsequently discuss the impact the results have on the hydrocarbon industry. Included in these discussions are the importance of subtle traps on carbon capture and storage, local sealing potential, and reservoir distribution. The Broad Fourteens Basin dataset was used to investigate concentric faults associated with salt withdrawal from below Triassic units. Throw-depth and throw-distance plots helped to understand the growth histories of the concentric faults. It was shown that these faults formed as a result of the bending of strata due to differential subsidence during salt withdrawal. Slip tendency analyses assessed the likelihood for faults to reactivate and transmit fluids whenever pore fluid pressure is increased. This approach simulated a typical profile during carbon capture and storage. It was shown that concentric faults will reactivate if pore fluid pressures are increased above 30 MPa at the relevant sub-surface depths, leaking fluids (including stored CO2) past regional seal intervals in the basin. Data from the Espírito Santo Basin were first used to assess the timing and magnitude of differential compaction over a submarine channel complex. Thickness-relief models helped quantify both the variations in thickness in overburden strata. Smaller channels associated with downslope knickpoints were located within the channel complex. Differential compaction over channels produced four-way dip closures, as coarse-grained sediments were deposited at the knickpoint base. These provide adequate structural traps after early burial. The Espírito Santo Basin 3D survey was used in a third chapter to assess how differential compaction affected sediment distribution over a mass-transport deposit. As large remnant and rafted blocks entrained within the MTD were buried, differential compaction produced anticlines over them. This created a rugged seafloor and the topographic highs confined sediment moving downslope, allowing it to pond in discrete depocentres. Results from the data analysis chapters were compared with compaction-related structures documented in the published literature. A novel classification for subtle structural traps associated with differential compaction was produced, separating each feature into one of four types; Type A: folds over tectonic structures >2 km wide; Type B: folds over sedimentary packages, typically elongate, ~500 m to 5 km wide; Type C: folds over topographic features that are 20 m to 2 km wide; Type D: folds over sub-seismic/outcrop features no larger than 20 m. The results of the classification can be used as a first assessment when recognising a compaction-related fold and to rapidly assess its evolution and effectiveness as a subtle hydrocarbon trap.

Abstract:
The identification and quantification of spin adducts and their reduction products (>NOH, >NOR) formed from nitroso compounds and nitrones in EPR and PP during spin trapping techniques have been examined. The nitroxyl yield and polymer bound nitroxyl percentage formed from these spin traps were found to be strongly dependent on the nature of spin trap and radical generator, processing temperature, and irradiation time. The nitroxyl yield and % bound nitroxyl of the spin traps improved significantly in the presence of Trigonox 101 and 2-0H benzophenone. The effect of these spin traps used as normal additive and their spin adducts in the form of EPR-masterbatch on the photo and thermal-oxidation of PP have been studied. Aliphatic nitroso compounds were found to have much better photo-antioxidant activity than nitrones and aromatic nitroso compounds, and their antioxidant activity improved appreciably in the presence of, a free radical generator, Trigonox 101, before and after extraction. The effect of heat, light and oxidising agent (meta-dichloro per benzoic acid) on the nitroxyl yield of nitroso tertiary butane in solution as a model study has been investigated and a cyclic regenerative process involving both chain breaking acceptor and chain breaking donor process has been proposed.

Abstract:
Using ion-trapping techniques, selected laboratory experiments on ion-molecule reactions of astrophysical interest have been performed. For the first time a carbon beam source has been integrated into an ion trapping machine for studying collisions between ions and neutral carbon atoms and molecules. Results are presented for the interaction of D3+ ions stored in a ring-electrode trap (RET), with a beam of hot neutral carbon molecules, Cn (n = 1, 2, 3). The measured reaction rate coefficients are up to a factor two smaller than values presently used in astrophysical models. In order to complete our knowledge about the ion chemistry involving three carbon atoms, detailed investigations of reactions of C3+, C3H+ and C3H3+ with H2 and HD have been performed between 15 K and room temperature. These studies have been performed in a second apparatus, a variable-temperature 22-pole trap machine (VT-22PT). Results include reactive collisions, deuteration and radiative association. It is discussed in connection with the increase in lifetime of the C3+ + H2 collision complexes with falling temperature, what could be responsible for producing more C3H+ at 15 K. Tunneling is excluded. In C3+ + HD collisions an isotope effect has been detected, the C3D+ product ions being slightly more abundant than C3H+. Comparison of the reaction of C3H+ primary ions with HD and H2 gas revealed that the deuterated molecules are significantly more reactive. The process of radiative association of C3H+ and for the first time of C3+ with hydrogen molecules has been observed. An analysis of the data shows that radiative association becomes slower, if the neutral reactant is deuterated. Finally, the theoretical prediction from ab initio calculations that C3H3+ does not exchange an H for a D in collisions with HD, has been proven in an ion trap experiment. Careful analysis of all competing processes allows the conclusion that the rate coefficient is smaller than 4x10-16 cm3s-1 at 15 K
Unter Verwendung von zwei Speicherapparaturen wurden ausgewählte, astrophysikalische wichtige Ionen-Molekülreaktionen untersucht. Durch die Kombination einer Kohlenstoffquelle mit einem Ionenspeicher, in dem so Reaktionen zwischen Ionen und Kohlenstoffmolekülen oder -atomen untersucht werden können, wurde Neuland betreten. Es werden Ergebnisse vorgestellt für die Reaktion von D3+ Ionen, die in einem Ringelektrodenspeicher gefangen sind, mit einem Strahl von heißen Cn (n = 1, 2, 3). Die gemessenen Ratenkoeffizienten sind nur halb so groß wie die Werte, die in astrophysikalischen Modellen verwendet werden. Um die Kenntnis über alle möglichen Reaktionen, bei denen drei C-Atome beteiligt sind, abzurunden, wurden zwischen 15 K und Zimmertemperatur die Reaktionen zwischen C3+, C3H+ und C3H3+ Ionen mit H2 und HD in vielen Details untersucht. Diese Experimente wurden in einer zweiten Apparatur durchgeführt, in der ein temperaturvariabler 22-Polspeicher das zentrale Element ist (VT-22PT). Berichtet werden Ergebnisse zu reaktiven Stößen, zur Deuterierung von Kohlenwasserstoffen und zur Strahlungsassoziation. In der Diskussion bleibt offen, was - in Verbindung mit der von 300 K zu 15 K zunehmenden Lebensdauer - der Grund dafür sein kann, daß die Bildung des exothermen Produkts C3H+ anwächst. Der Tunneleffekt scheidet aus. Bei der Reaktion C3+ + HD wurde ein Isotopeneffekt beobachtet, das C3D+ Produkt wird etwas häufiger gebildet als C3H+. Ein Vergleich der Reaktion zwischen C3H+ Ionen mit HD bzw. H2 zeigt, daß das deuterierte Molekül wesentlich reaktiver ist. Es wurden Ratenkoeffizienten für die Strahlungsassoziation von H2 Molekülen mit C3H+ und erstmals mit C3+ Ionen gemessen. Die Auswertung der Daten zeigt, dass der Prozeß langsamer abläuft, wenn der neutrale Stoßpartner deuteriert ist. Schließlich wurde experimentell die theoretische Vorhersage überprüft, dass C3H3+ keinen H-D Austausch mit HD eingeht. Eine sorgfältige Analyse aller konkurrierenden Prozesse ergab, dass bei 15 K der Raten koeffizient kleiner als 4x10-16 cm3s-1 ist

Abstract:
Understanding thickness variation and facies transitions in the mudstone-rich part of the Upper Middle Jurassic (Callovian) Entrada Sandstone depositional system is critical for constraining the paleogeography and evaluating the economic potential of Utah's Entrada Sandstone. Facies of the Entrada Sandstone in south-central Utah are dominated by mudstone-rich intertidal facies that were widespread within the Jurassic seaway. Intertidal deposits interfinger basinward with subtidal ooid-bearing shoals and bars, and landward supratidal sabkha, and erg-margin eolian deposits. Three sections were measured to improve understanding of the lateral and vertical facies transitions. Variations in thickness indicate the rate of developing accommodation space was high along the southwestern shoreline and relatively low along the northeastern shoreline during Callovian time. Although accommodation space was highest in the west, sediment supply from the west kept pace with, and eventually outpaced subsidence. In the east, sediment supply was significant but at one time was outpaced by subsidence, creating a complete range of facies, from subtidal to supratidal deposits. Along this eastern shoreline, erg-margin coastal dunes associated with the larger erg to the east eventually prograded westward. The variation in subsidence, sediment supply, and sediment source makes sequence stratigraphic correlation difficult. Reservoir-quality sandstones are associated with muddy sections of the Entrada Sandstone within the San Rafael Swell. Porosity and permeability of the facies in this area indicate excellent reservoir potential in three of eight facies that were studied. Porosities of these potential reservoirs ranged from 11-22%, with permeabilities ranging from 44-430md. These high quality reservoir facies are surrounded by muddy, low reservoir-quality rocks, creating conditions amenable to the development of stratigraphic hydrocarbon traps. Based on further study and a modern analog at the north of the Gulf of California, Hicks and others' (2010) depositional model for the Entrada Sandstone of south-central Utah has been modified to include newly interpreted facies. This improved depositional model may have predictive power in exploring for stratigraphic and combination traps within the Entrada system of Utah and analogous depositional systems throughout the world.

Abstract:
The late Middle Jurassic (Callovian) Entrada Sandstone has been divided into two general facies associations consisting primarily of eolian sandstones in eastern Utah and "muddy" redbeds in central Utah. Sedimentary structures within the redbed portion are explained by the interfingering of inland sabkha, alluvial, and eolian depositional systems. A complete succession from the most basinward facies to the most terrestrial facies in the Entrada Sandstone consists of inland sabkha facies overlain by either alluvial or eolian facies. Where both alluvial and eolian facies interfinger, alluvial facies overlain by eolian facies is considered a normal succession. Sequence boundaries, often identified by more basinward facies overlying more landward facies, are observed in the Entrada Sandstone and are extrapolated for the first time across much of Utah, including both the eolian-dominated and redbed-dominated areas. Using these sequence boundaries as well as recent tephrochronologic studies, three time correlative surfaces have been identified in the Entrada. Based on the facies interpretations at each surface, five paleogeographic reconstructions and five isopach maps have been created, illustrating two major intervals of erg expansion and the location of the Jurassic retroarc foreland basin's potential forebulge. Eolian (erg-margin) sandstones pinch-out into muddy redbeds creating combination traps, as evidenced by dead oil (tar) and bleached eolian sandstone bodies within the Entrada. The Entrada Sandstone is a world-class analog for similar systems, such as the Gulf of Mexico's Norphlet Sandstone, where eolian facies grade into muddy redbed facies.

Abstract:
The East Shetland Basin is a superb natural laboratory in which to study the role that normal fault growth and linkage has in determining petroleum prospectivity. Use of several high density 3D seismic volumes and over 250 boreholes permits key aspects of the Late Jurassic rift and its Permo-Triassic precursor to be analysed and its role on hydrocarbon trap formation, reservoir distribution and migration determined. The regional interpretation has revealed the generation of a North Sea archipelago of Upper Jurassic islands, the role of relay ramps in controlling syn-rift sediment dispersal patterns and the impact of normal faults of the later episode crossing and offsetting those generated by the earlier phase. The uplift, erosion and meteoric flushing of Upper Jurassic and older strata within the exposed fault blocks could potentially have huge consequences for the Brent play by enhancing reservoir properties and hence, help identify new play opportunities down-dip of major structures. Fault control on sediment dispersal can also be documented in a more localized study on the Cladhan Field, the site of a pronounced basin-margin relay ramp. This recent discovered set of syn-rift density flows illustrates how the development and distribution of depositional gradients and transport pathways form subtle play types. The Cladhan area is just one of several locations throughout the East Shetland Basin where the interaction of multiple rift phases is influential in the structural feedback after the Upper Jurassic rifting event. The delicate interaction and reactivation of underlying structural trends creates a series of multi-tiered fault block systems which can define several aspects of a petroleum system, depending upon the strike, polarity and level of reactivation of faults from one rift to another. The observations of fault growth and linkage in the Northern North Sea may provide generic lessons that help in determining petroleum prospectivity in other hydrocarbon rift basins (e.g. E. Africa and the N. Atlantic seaboard of North America).

Abstract:
Substantial seismic and well data have been gathered and used for the exploration and exploitation of the Salawati Basin since the 1970s. The interpretation of these data and implementation of findings resulted into several discoveries and producing fields associated with the Tertiary petroleum system of Klasafet-Kais, particularly in the Walio Area. The presence of pre-Tertiary petroleum systems remain speculative to date although numerous pre-Tertiary structural and stratigraphic traps can be defined, and hypothetical sourcing can be inferred to origin from shales of the Permo-Triassic Aifam Group and the Late Jurassic – Late Cretaceous Kembelangan Formation. Yet the actual hydrocarbon charging of those traps has not been proven. Surface geochemical surveys were conducted in the Walio Area with the objective to characterize the origin of hydrocarbons of the area and possibly uncover the presence of a pre-Tertiary source. Pre-Tertiary sediments are encountered in three exploration wells of the Walio Area and pre-Tertiary traps were defined by the interpretation of 3D seismic. Surface geochemical surveys were conducted in the Walio Area to map the distribution of oil and gas microseeps and try to determine their source. Whole oil chromatography and isotope & biomarker analysis were also performed on Kais reservoired oil samples to determine source rock lithology, depositional environment, and age. Hydrocarbon analysis of one-meter-deep soil samples revealed the distribution of volatile and liquid hydrocarbon microseeps in the survey area. Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and Rock-Eval Pyrolysis measurement was carried out to outcrop samples of the Klasafet Fm., Kembelangan Fm., Tipuma Fm., and Aifat Fm. The outcrop samples resulted in lean TOC, and produced very low S2 values to which the Tmax cannot be estimated. Hydrocarbon microseeps were found occurring over and off existing fields and pre-Tertiary traps. Both light oil microseeps (35° API) and heavy oil microseeps (14° API) were identified over fresh and biodegraded crude oil Kais reservoirs, respectively in the Walio Area. Microseeps with lighter hydrocarbon compositions (e.g. C5/C17 ratio) may reflect leakage from deeper pre-Tertiary sources.
