Sizeable 3D Previous HitseismicNext Hit surveys over buried thrust fronts provide the start of a full 3D work process that greatly improves the exploration and production efforts of multiple plays in complex geologic trends and maximizes their profitability. This full Previous Hit3-DNext Hit platform not only improves Previous HitseismicNext Hit imaging and interpretation, but allows continuous Previous Hit3-DNext Hit analysis of the projects; Previous HitfromNext Hit Previous HitstructuralNext Hit modeling and mapping, to cost reduction efforts for well and development programs; to stratigraphic, Previous HitstructuralNext Hit and fracture modeling input for full field simulation and in fill drilling.

YPF/Maxus and its partners have achieved a full Previous Hit3-DNext Hit image of a buried thrust front in one of the most prolific hydrocarbon- bearing trends in the world with two merged Previous Hit3-DNext Hit Previous HitseismicNext Hit surveys totaling 550 km2 of surface coverage. This Previous Hit3-DNext Hit volume covers the series of stacked thrust sheets that form the eastward continuation of the Furrial field complex in the Eastern Venezuela basin. These Previous HitdataTop and the interpretive products were performed as a part of our technological commitment to Lagoven in the service contract of the Quiriquire block, awarded to Maxus in the 1993 Venezuela second marginal field bid round.
