Abstract: At Dulang Field a near-surface Pleistocene channel creates potential hazards to production platform installation. Selection of a location for the Dulang “A” platform was conducted by integrating 3-D seismic data, shot for exploration and development purposes, with site survey data, acquired specifically to address seabed and near-surface hazards. This approach provides a more efficient and comprehensive interpretation than is achievable by the more conventional approach of interpreting the site survey data alone.
