Application of method of heat vision generalization for the estimation of terms of accumulation of hydrocarbons in the Western desert of Egypt

Abstract

The article presents results of an innovative technologies application – the thermal imaging generalization method for environments assessing that make possible the accumulation of hydrocarbon in the Western Desert of Egypt. This method was first applied in the cumulative desert in new modification, which applies not only the field of thermal radiation, but also an indicator of relative water saturation. It gives an opportunity to confirm and specify the discovered contours of oil and gas deposits and similar to them to discover some new, which are predicted for the first time.
