Abstract

Weak seismic reflection (Low amplitude) areas of a circular shape have been observed in the Lower<br>Cretaceous Lekhwair Formation seismic Attribute time maps and sections of East Abu Dhabi area. A<br>well has been drilled in one of these features, shows that the Late Valanginian rock section came highly<br>cemented, (dense), with extensive stylolitization and reduction in formation thickness, compared with<br>a normal thickness and rock characteristics in the near by drilled wells (out side the features). This<br>phenomenon is limited to that stratigraphic section, and doesn’t affect the overlain Hauterivian rock<br>section. This features are most likely caused by, either Meteorites (impact from outer space)occured in<br>the Late Valagnian time, or by an upward forces came from bellow; and this need further investigation.
