Abstract

Western Offshore Basin is the largest petroliferous province situated in the west coast of India. It is a matured basin and most of the structural plays whether big or small, have been identified and drilled. It is felt that the remaining hydrocarbon potential of this basin lies within the stratigraphic traps. The present study attempts to bring out potential stratigraphic traps within the lows and Central Graben was chosen as the best target for exploration of stratigraphic traps.
