1. Introduction
The South Sumatra Basin (SSB) Province consists of several structural sub-basins with Tertiary
sedimentary section lying unconformably on the eroded and faulted topography of pre-Tertiary
metamorphic and igneous rocks (Bishop, M., 2001).
1.1. Regional Geology: South Sumatra Basin (SSB)
The South Sumatra Basin (SSB) is one of the most hydrocarbon prolific Tertiary back-arc basins today
which located primarily onshore Sumatra, Indonesia. The province covers an area of approximately
117,000 km2 consists of Tertiary half-graben basins infilled with carbonate and clastic sedimentary
rocks unconformably overlying pre-Tertiary metamorphic and igneous rocks. It was formed as a pullapart basin related to NW-SE trending dextral strike-slip faulting.

SSB is divided into several sub-basins: Jambi, North Palembang, Central Palembang, South
Palembang, and Bandar Jaya Basin (Williams and others, 1995; Suseno and others, 1992) (figure 1). It
experienced three tectonic deformation phases: Mesozoic compressional, Eocene-Oligocene
extensional, and Pliocene-Pleistocene compressional tectonics.

Some fractures study was conducted specially in Baturaja Formation South Sumatra Basin. Ricky, et.
al. (2008) showing fractures in BRF Fm. located on Southern part of SPB-SSB using FMI data proved
as the main tools to help the next development well locations and reservoir zones. FMI images
showing breakouts and drilling induced fractures in these Well which has NNW-SSE. The lithology
dominantly by Limestone with poorly bedded, localized vugular porosity as porous zones (cavities or
vugs). Yanto, Y., et. al., (2011) has been observed in the upper part of the Baturaja Formation (BRF)SSB which dominant porosity in thin sections is mouldic and micro vuggy, with some fractures.
Much effort has focused on measuring amplitude variations with offset (AVO) for seismic reflections
from a fractured reservoir (Gray et al., 2002, Perez et al., 1999, and Shen et al., 2002). Amplitude
variation with offset and azimuth (AVOA) has been widely used to identify the orientation of vertical
fractures with variable levels of success (Ruger, 1998; Mallick et al., 1998; Perez et al., 1999; Shen
and Toksoz, 2000; Minsley et al., 2003). In these applications, the fractures are assumed to be small
relative to the wavelength of the seismic waves. This allows the fractured medium to be modeled
using an equivalent anisotropic medium (Schoenberg and Douma, 1988). Others have looked at shear
wave data for fracture analysis (Lynn et al., 1995; Gaiser et al., 2002).
In the other hands, Baskoro (2012) was to identify seismic attributes to delineate the fault and fracture
distribution in the Basement rocks-SSB using the CBM-Controlled Beam Migration processed data. A
number of attributes were generated including coherency and curvature attributes. The strike of the
structural grain is best observed using the azimuth data and is observed to be NW-SE.
The presence of hydrocarbons, especially gas in sand reservoirs, commonly creates the hockey stick
effect in the common midpoint (CMP) gathers when normal moveout (NMO) corrections have been
applied, indicating that a faster NMO velocity is required to flatten the reflection events. Prior to
scanning the amplitudes within CMP gathers, it is common practice to apply a time-offset mute to
remove overcorrected traces, or to apply trim statics to force reflection events to be flat (Gulunay et
al., 2007).
A new method for calculating the correct Vrms automatically was developed without scanning the set
of velocities, but by considering only the local even correlation of adjacent traces from the nearest to
far end offset. The proposed method honors changes of velocity in each offset. Therefore, any
anisotropic characters in the CMP gather will be measured automatically. This principle is simple, but
requires high signal-to-noise-ratio data and good event continuity along the offsets within the CMP
gather.

In Equation 1, tj is the residual moveout at offset X, and is equal to the time shift measured using
local event correlation (LEC). The nearest-offset trace is used as the reference for measuring residual
moveout on the other traces. Vh can be calculated for each individual offset across the CMP gather.
Equation 1 thus acts as an operator to transform CMP data from amplitude gathers into velocity
gathers. The VVO analysis is then carried out on the velocity gathers.
The output Vh gather can be stacked or averaged to produce a high resolution velocity field for NMO
correction. Partial stacking can also be done to extract near- and far-offset velocity fields. The
difference between far- and near-offset Vh values provides a quick scan of velocity gradient in the
VVO method.
wave reflection from the base of the reservoir is much more effected by the presence of the discrete
fractures.

locations, and density parameters
This figure also illustrates the difference in coherence of the scattered wavefield normal and parallel to
the fractures. Normal to the fractures, interference of scattered waves from the fractures results in a
complex wavefield (Figure 7a). Fractures act as secondary sources with observable forward and
backscattering as well as multiple scattering events. Parallel to the fractures the wavefield is much
more coherent and the fractures appear to act as waveguides (Figure 7b).

5. Conclusion
The Vrms field produced by the LEC method is a high-resolution velocity field. This highresolution velocity field is very useful, for instance for developing a velocity model for depth
conversion and for pore pressure prediction. The VVO method is not affected by processing
algorithms and parameterization, unlike the AVO method which requires amplitude-preserving
processing algorithms. Application of AGC will degrade the AVO responses.
Observations from VVO attributes of hyperbolic moveout velocity gradient and interval velocity
gradient that fracture reservoir zone with gas accumulations is more easier to identified.
Meanwhile, the existence and orientation fractured zone are recognized in FMI logs of study wells
due to the overall good quality of electrical images. This implies the planning for the development
wells drilled could be based on the result of reservoir characterization and fracture determination as
good as the results of prospect development.
