1. Introduction
2. What is asking for multi spectral data
3. Case study in Minhe basin, China
4. Case study in Tarim basin, China
5. Summary
1. Introduction
Oil, Gas = fluid
Exploration oil and gas = Find or estimate traps
Interests are ……
much in shape of geological structure,
less in spectral information.

2. What is asking for multi spectral data
ASTER
VNIR
3 bands
SWIR
6 bands
TIR
5 bands
If we can get ……
1. Distribution trend of good source rock
2. Distribution pattern of good reservoir
it would be helpful for oil and gas exploration.
3. Case study in Minhe Basin, China
3. Case study in Minhe Basin, China
Objective 1; Distribution trend of good source rock
Principle; Good source = High TOC content
High TOC rock
↓
dark in VNIR
(Experimental)
TOC: Total organic carbon (%)
3. Case study in Minhe Basin, China
Poor
Good
Poor
Result; North-western to central part is in a fair way
3. Case study in Minhe Basin, China
Objective 2; Distribution pattern of good reservoir
Principle; Good reservoir = High porosity sandstone
= High SiO2 content
Band 10, 11;
positively correlated

1. Multi spectral data of ASTER has not been
fully used in oil and gas industry.
2. It can contribute to basin study, in particular
to get distribution trend of source rock and
reservoir quality.
3. Simulated reflectance/emissivity processing
is a powerful tool for ASTER data to trace
thin but important bed.
