The Browse Ultracube™ 3D project comprises of the reprocessing and integration of 3 phases of the North Browse TQ3D surveys to create a single fully reprocessed pre-stack time migrated (PSTM) volume. Contiguous volume interpretation on a basin wide scale provides the foundation of future exploration in the Browse.
The seismic data provides a consistent 3D dataset to further understand the regional stratigraphic and structural interpretation of the Browse Basin. A full suite of additional products are available and allows further work such as depth processing, AVO studies and inversion. Dynamic water bottom corrections, attention to detail in the velocity analysis and addressing the azimuthal anisotropy, have proven to yield significant uplift in the resolution of the dataset and the ability to preserve deep coherent reflectors.
The Browse Basin has received intensive exploration in recent years after a sporadic exploration history. Several large gas fields (> 5TCF) have been discovered within the basin which are currently being commercialised. The outboard potential of this basin has now also been successfully tested.
