Study Notes
Hydrocarbon Exploration
- Seeps and shows provide basic evidence of hydrocarbon generation in hydrocarbon exploration.
Hydrocarbon Deposit Detection
- Seismic surveys are primarily used to detect and determine the extent of hydrocarbon deposits.
Initial Survey Method
- A regional seismic survey is the initial survey method used in areas thought to contain hydrocarbons.
Lead Evaluation
- Features of interest, known as leads, are subjected to further exploration and analysis in hydrocarbon exploration.
Pockmarks
- Pockmarks in hydrocarbon exploration refer to depressions on the seafloor or sediment surface, often associated with hydrocarbon leakage or escape.
Initial Survey
- A regional seismic survey is initially conducted in areas suspected to contain hydrocarbons.
