Subsurface geological model of Malay Basin using free air anomaly

The aim of gravity survey is to assist in the detection and delineation of subsurface geological features such as salt domes and faults. In this study, free air anomaly (FAA) data was adopted for mapping and modelling process to delineate subsurface geological features and basement depth in Malay Ba...

description The aim of gravity survey is to assist in the detection and delineation of subsurface geological features such as salt domes and faults. In this study, free air anomaly (FAA) data was adopted for mapping and modelling process to delineate subsurface geological features and basement depth in Malay Basin. FAA is the measured gravity anomaly after a free air correction is applied, and it is used for elevation correction. The data of FAA in this study is obtained from Earth Gravitational Model (EGM) 2008 released by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA)-EGM Development Team. Oasis Montaj software was used in the mapping and modelling process whereby the base map which constructed by the Oasis Montaj is used to form the FAA map of Malay Basin. Typically, the positive anomaly is associated with the high-density intrusion at the base of the crust, while in contrast (negative anomaly), it is related to the sedimentary basin in the upper crust. On top of that, the regional-residual anomaly, total horizontal derivative (THD) and 3D Euler Deconvolution enhanced maps were produced and interpreted to acquire comprehensive insight of subsurface geological features. To conclude, this study showed 5% deviation as compared to previous reported works and the deepest basement depth encountered is 14.5 km.
