What is it about?
Shallow gas zones are a major concern in offshore drilling because of their potential to quickly cause kicks or blowouts. By using seismic attributes, shallow gas hazards are predicted. The study area is located in Nam Con Son Basin, offshore Vietnam.

Why is it important?
Identifying shallow gas by using seismic attributes is important in petroleum exploration and production. The identification and avoidance of shallow gas is a principal objective in well planning and site survey procedures. The study is unique because data without gas effects can be compared to data affected by gas after a well blowout. The research has been done by using seismic attributes to map potential shallow gas zones in the shallow part of seismic data (0-1.5 second TWT).
