Structure map

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003663

A contour map that illustrates the subsurface configuration of a specific stratigraphic horizon, typically depicting the top of a reservoir rock or a key marker bed. It shows the structural highs and lows, folds, and faults that can trap hydrocarbons. These maps are constructed using seismic data, well logs, and core data to guide exploration and development decisions.
