Abstract
 

The Razzak oil field is located, together with several other oil fields, along the Qattara - AlameinRidge in the north Western Desert of Egypt. This ridge comprises the main hydrocarbon producers in the Alamein Basin, with several closed structures, which are in a favorable geological setting with respect to hydrocarbon prospectively.The Alamein basin is the main source area for the Alamein, Razzak, Yidma, Burg El Arab and North Alamein fields. Production from these fields is from multi stacked Cretaceous reservoirs comprising Alam El Bueib sandstones, Dahab sandstone′s, Alamein dolomite, Bahariya sandstones and Abu Roash "G" Dolomite. Razzak field was discovered in March, 1972 it is producing from four different horizons, Abu Roash "G" (AR/G), Bahariya, Aptian Dolomite, and Alam EL Bueib BA-1 marker (EGPC,1992). In this paper re-processing technique applied on one 2D seismic line to obtain an improvement on the final stack seismic section. Then perform a comparison between the stack section obtained from re-processing technique and the old stack section to shown the enhancement. The seismic line used in this paper is Razaak 18- 87 in SEG Y format. Vista software is used to accomplish seismic data processing by applying different processing flows on Razzak 18.
