Introduction：

Lower and Middle Indus basins of Pakistan fall in extensional to trans-tensional tectonic regime and hence are characterized by horst-graben features, tilted fault blocks and strike-slip zones with associated negative flower patterns. Horst blocks, tilted fault blocks and gentle roll-overs form the main hydrocarbon traps.

Faults and fractures have an important role in understanding fluid flow and hydrocarbon entrapment. Correct marking of faults on time and depth seismic sections or volumes aid in enhanced fault seal analysis, reserves estimations and hence it can help a company in making its future decisions about drilling wells at optimum locations.

3D Seismic attributes can be of great help in delineating subsurface fault networks, their orientations and their lateral and vertical extents.
