This paper aims to identify the oil distribution using 4-D seismic below a complex 3-D surface in Hugin Formation using machine learning and geobody detection. The exploration well 15/9-19-SR, drilled to the Theta Vest structure, was based on the interpretation of reprocessed ST8215R 3-D seismic survey data from 1991 in the Sleipner area, encountered oil in the Jurassic Hugin Formation. The drills stem test showed outstanding production capacities through time, with low water cut and low GOR. 4-D seismic has all the traditional benefits of 3-D seismic. A significant additional potential benefit is that fluid-flow processes can be directly imaged. The 4-D seismic analysis was conducted in 2012 to repeat the 3-D seismic surveys and analyze images in time-lapse mode to monitor time-varying fluid-flow processes during reservoir production. A comprehensive study of the structure and the discovery has been performed and is reported. The DNN method to predict facies far away from existing production wells by using facies log well to supervise seismic inversion created by the Seismic Color Inversion method. It can detect some oil pockets distribution and risk the well planning and the right candidate for new proposed wells.
