TECTONIC SETTING AND POTENTIAL HYDROCARBON EVALUATION USING THE SEISMIC AND MAGNETIC DATA IN RAMADAN FIELD - SOUTHERN PART OF THE GULF OF SUEZ - EGYPT.

Abstract

The southern part of the Gulf of Suez contains all elements of hydrocarbon entrapment (source rock, reservoir and cap rock) to be one the most prolific hydrocarbon generation zone especially in Kareem, Nukhul and Pre-Miocene Formations. The southern part of Gulf of Suez is one of the important areas of evaluation and study, to explore the hydrocarbon migration locations. Study of the southern part of Gulf of Suez will reflect a pattern of academic and practical integrated work. By applying the latest modern method in Geophysics and Geology we can obtain the best results reflect the value of the area from technical, scientific and economic point of view.
