The investigated area is characterized by complex subsurface geology and rough topography. The seismic measurements were performed along five linear profiles, P1-P5, using an active spread of 96 geophones for each shot point;geophone spacing was 25 m. The length of each acquisition line is greater than 10 km. The signal-to-noise ratio of these data varies along the lines and its variation is considered to be an effect of rough topography, complex subsurface geology and varying surface conditions encountered during seismic data acquisition. The data processing was performed using a standard processing flow but with different processing parameters from one data set to another. I obtained five depth-converted migrated seismic sections after data processing. The accuracy of the depth values depends on that of the stacking velocities obtained from the velocity analyses performed on the filtered seismic data. Borehole information is not available, the investigated area belonging to the areas investigated for hydrocarbons. Each seismic section shows a different structural image of the subsurface and provides useful information about the tectonic and stratigraphic evolution of the investigated area. I obtained various structural images of the subsurface after the interpretation of the depth-converted migrated seismic sections, from a simple one with undeformed and inclined reflectors to a complex one with folded and faulted reflectors, especially the older ones. I interpreted intrusive bodies piercing through the overlying sediments, which are in good agreement with the results of older geophysical studies.展开更多
