Magnetometria aplicada à Bacia de Santos

Abstract

After a bibliographical research, Santos basin was characterized in its geographical, structural, stratigraphic, historic and economic (in hydrocarbons prospectivity means) aspects. The work presents basin's extension, localization and classification, its formations mean structural features, and the depositional environments that define its history; also it focus the key events from the point of view of hydrocarbon exploration. The magnetic method is described briefly within its theoretical basis, its data acquisition technology, the data processing steps and some characteristics of interpretation. As case study, it were chosen papers that use the new HRAM data surveyed in the basin, which permit a more detailed analysis of the structural framework, as well the proposition of models that present some hypothesis about origin and migration of sedimentary portions. There are four documents from ANP annexed at the end of work: stratigraphic chart, stratigraphic section, map of the basin showing ANP blocks until round 8 and a table with the ANP concessions.
