There is a need, within both geophysical exploration and deep geophysical research, to estimate magnetic basement depth. Forward and inverse modeling studies to map the basement depth are commonly used within petroleum geophysics. To obtain the basement topography, modeling studies are made of the 2D profile data or 3D map data. In this study, a different algorithm was introduced to estimate the magnetic basement depth from map data. The algorithm is based on the analytical solution of exponential equations obtained from Fourier transformation of magnetic data. This algorithm has been tested on synthetic magnetic anomalies originated from multi-prisms. Following encouraging test results, the proposed algorithm was also tested on field data. The depths obtained from the proposed approach were satisfactory in comparison with the depths obtained from seismic survey cross-sections and boreholes. Basic MATLAB code is included in the Appendix. |
