Abstract: Background: The PCL well is located in Block 1 Seme Field of Benin Republic, Dahomey Basin. Effort is now being focused on the hydrocarbon exploration ofthe eastern Dahomey Basin in Nigeria and oil producing Tano Basin in Ghana so as to attract more investors and document information about it. Therefore, Palynostratigraphy of the Tertiary Offshore Dahomey Basin was carried out toexamine an important component of the organic matter forprovide better understanding of its Paleoecology and Paleoenvironmentusing the PCL- well as a case study. This study will give more insight on the offshore part of the basin (Seme Block1).......

Abstract: A detailed total intensity aeromagnetic survey was carried out in Wadi barqa, Southeastern of Sinai, Egypt; the magnetic data were corrected for the diurnal variations and reduced to the northern magnetic pole. The reduced to the magnetic pole map was qualitatively interpreted first through the magnetic separation by the 9-points Hanning filter into its regional and residual anomalies and second through the magnetic filtering in frequency domain into its low-pass and high-pass magnetic anomalies. The oldest tectonic trends seem to be rejuvenated and related to the opening of the Red Sea and the two gulfs. Furthermore, the reduced to the pole map was quantitatively interpreted first through the determination of the apparent magnetic intensity of the basement rocks, and through the basement depth determination by both the two-dimensional modeling and Euler deconvolution techniques. The basement relief map, according to either the step faults model or dikes and sills model reveals that the.....

Abstract: A key step in seismic data processing is first break (FB) picking, or rather, determining the onset of the first seismic arrivals in seismic records. FB picking is tedious and time-consumingtask and robustness and efficient automatic method are essential. Many automated FB-picking algorithms already exist that reduce the dependence on human interaction. The goal of this project is to improve automated FB picking by capturing the expertise of FB picking through supervised training of deep neural network from the field of machine vision. We have evaluated several neural network architectures and found a seven layer U-net with skip connections to provide the best results on seismic shot gathers....
