Aplicação do método sísmico na investigação exploratória da Bacia do Recôncavo

Abstract

This work presents in the first part the geologic context of the Recôncavo Basin. This context involves the stratigraphy, structural complex, the tectonic/sedimentary evolution and the petroleum geology. At the second part the seismic method is presented. It's includes some topics like: propagation of seismic waves, acquisition, processing and interpretation. At the last part of the work is presented a study which demonstrates the contribution of this method for a better understanding of the geology and petroliferous system in the Recôncavo Basin.
