Sequence stratigraphic approach to hydrocarbon exploration: a case study of Chiadu field at eastern onshore Niger Delta Basin, Nigeria

Abstract This study integrated lithofacies, foraminifera and seismic data to develop a sequence stratigraphic approach to hydrocarbon exploration for Chiadu field. The application of lithostratigraphic approach led to correlation of diachronous lithofacies and wrongly defined an approximately accura...
