Geology section:

----------------------Answer the following questions:

1. Although shale is not regarded as reservoir
because its permeability is almost nothing,
hydrocarbons might move from the source rock
shale by one or more of the following causes,
select:
Through shale fissility.
Through micro-permeability caused by sand size fraction
content.
By high pore pressure associating hydrocarbon maturity
and increasing distance between grain boundaries.

2. The Gulf of Suez was formed through:

Early Paleozoic.
Late Triassic.
Early Miocene.

3. The Syrian Arc Structures are:

Tilted fault blocks.
Shallow Rift Basins.
Asymmetrical folds.

4. Clastic Rocks:
Are formed due to reaction between Calcium and
Sulphate.
Are formed from weathered particles of Sand,
Clay and Silt.
Are formed from chemical precipitation of Calcium
Carbonate.

5. The most common reservoirs are:

Sandstone and Carbonate rocks.
Shale and Sandstone rocks.
Anhydrite and Dolomite rocks.

6. Shale is:
Compaction processing of clay minerals.
Made of Calcium Carbonate and Sodium Sulphate.
Originated in deep marine water.

7. The faults can be divided into:

Dextral and sinistral faults.
Normal, reverse, thrust faults.
Regional and tectonic faults.

8. The most common tools used to determine

hydrocarbon are:
Sonic, gamma rays.
Resistivity and Neutron density.
Dipmeter, borehole geometry tool.

9. Anhydrite plays an important role as:

Reservoir potential rocks.
Good source rocks.
As ultimate scaling rocks.

10. The oil can be trapped in the:

Structure trap only.
Structure and stratigraphic traps.
stratigraphic traps only.

11.Write under each diagram which is

representing primary or multiple reflection:
Primary Seismic events whose energy has been reflected
once. Multiples, in contrast, are events whose energy has
been reflected more than once. A goal of seismic data
processing is to enhance primary reflections, which are
then interpreted as subsurface interfaces.
Multiply or secondary reflected seismic energy, or any
event in seismic data that has incurred more than one
reflection in its travel path. Depending on their time delay
from the primary events with which they are associated,
multiples are characterized as short-path or peg-leg,
implying that they interfere with the primary reflection, or
long-path, where they appear as separate events.
Multiples from the water bottom (the interface of the base
of water and the rock or sediment beneath it) and the airwater interface are common in marine seismic data, and
are suppressed by seismic processing.
Multiply-reflected seismic energy occurs in several ways
but is typically removed by seismic processing. Long-path
multiples appear as distinct events and generally originate
deep in the subsurface. Short-path multiples are added to
primary reflections and tend to come from shallow
subsurface phenomena

Multiply-reflected seismic energy from the water bottom is

common in marine seismic data, but, like many multiples,
seismic processing attempts to minimize its presence.
