High resolution geophysical survey performed at submarine slope area in Jubarte Field, Espírito Santo Basin

The article presents partial result of high resolution geophysical survey, performed to provide information to support the design of marine installations, by the Engineering group of Petrobras.<br>The study area is located in Jubarte Field, Espírito Santo Basin and the survey comprised the acquisition of bathymetric data, sub-bottom profile (SBP) and sonar data. CTD’s profile were also performed in order to obtain sound velocity propagation in sea water and thus correct the depth values obtained from bathymetry. Only the sonar and SBP data will be discussed in this article.<br>The acquired data was processed and interpreted. The result consists of a map of submarine local features. The main features identified are presented in this article. A better characterization of the sea bottom features and sediments will be completed after the acquisition of sediments samples, which will be performed in a next phase of the survey.
