Algal Mound Reservoir Characterization Utilizing Multicomponent Seismic Data, Roadrunner Field, Paradox Basin, U.S.A.

P122 Algal Mound Reservoir Characterization Utilizing Multicomponent Seismic Data Roadrunner Field Paradox Basin U.S.A. R.D. Benson* (Colorado School of Mines) SUMMARY The Algal Mounds of the Upper and Lower Ismay reservoirs of the Paradox Basin are complex and difficult to detect and characterize using conventional techniques. A 3D Multicomponent seismic survey acquired over the Roadrunner and Towaoc fields has been utilized to better delineate the internal structures of the reservoirs and to improve reservoir development.
