ABSTRACT
A quick look at the well in Malay Basin data on the suitability of the AVO attributes and how the modeling result and derivatives of the product can lead to the false estimation of hydrocarbon. In most cases the amplitude change in the Malay basin is very small with regards to the rock quality, however, with the calibration to the well information, some products are feasible for application in the region. AVO method is the most common method practiced in the industry to delineate hydrocarbon prospecting based on pre-stack/partial seismic data, with no exception in the Malay basin field. There are a lot of AVO attributes developed by various researchers around the world, however, the sensitivity of each attribute in identifying the fluid types at the targeted reservoir is different. This paper discusses the study of the sensitivity of several AVO attributes in differentiating the fluid types through AVO modeling and fluid replacement on the data set from a well located in the Malay Basin field.
