This application is especially significant in detecting hydrocarbon in shallow waters. The success of this method in the search of oil and gas reservoirs is due to the fact that hydrocarbon-saturated-reservoirs are characterized by very high resistivity, while the surrounding saline water formations are very conductive. Through these characteristics, the resistivity of the sea subsurface could be mapped via the electric and magnetic field data collected in CSEM survey. Modeling is done using finite element method, which is a flexible computational method that utilizes unstructured grids that can readily conform to irregular boundaries such as seafloor topography. This paper highlights the application of the finite element method in processing the CSEM data to produce the 1D model of hydrocarbon reservoir. The CSEM data is gathered through experiments using a 90-cm deep water tank that has been designed to represent the actual system of seabed logging. The obtained results show that the modeling method is capable to become an alternative solution in hydrocarbon detection. date: 2011 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-79960573998&partnerID=40&md5=8ad20345db5e70df3df8248a6e435148 full_text_status: none publication: IMECS 2011 - International MultiConference of Engineers and Computer Scientists 2011 volume: 2 place_of_pub: Kowloon pagerange: 991-995 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9789881925121 citation: Hanif, N.H.H.M. and Hussain, N. and Yahya, N. and Daud, H. and Yahya, N. and Karsiti, M.N.
