_Seismic Geomorphology Interpretation_  
A series of seismic volume time slices are shown in Figure 5, and Figure 6 reveals detailed main fluvial systems at different time intervals (\(-50\), \(-68\), \(-90\), \(-111\), \(-138\), and \(-174\) ms). A map-view of time slices is shown in Figure 5A,B, representing the beginning exposure of the channels at two different two-way times (\(-50\) and \(-68\) ms). However, the topmost exposure of the southwest meandering channel is shown in Figure 5(B-A), while Figure 5(B-B) reveals the topmost meandered channel's location at the east part of the studied area. Due to the nature of the study area deposits, which are generally sheet-like, the geomorphological interpretation of time slices is working perfectly. Horizon slices (amplitude extractions simultaneous to trace the horizons) and flattened horizons function are especially effective for working with sloped or twisted rock layers. Figure 5: (**A–H**) Reveals the Melor and Inas fields’ time slices at particular two-way times and covering an area of approximately \(574\) km\({}^{2}\). (**A**) Time slice of spectral decomposition attribute at \(-50\) ms below the seafloor, (**B**) the time slice at \(-68\) ms below the seafloor. (**C**) Time slice at \(-90\) ms and the top major sinuous channel’s uppermost features extending throughout the widespread channel belt in the right-side of the map-view with the other two minor channels in the left and south of the map-view. (**D**) The time slice at \(-111\) ms exhibiting the major sinuous channel in the right side of the map view (Figure 5(D-B) and a minor meandered channel with its tributaries in the southwest of the map view (Figure 5(D-A). However, (**E**) shows time slice of the seismic Cosine of Phase attribute, revealing the time succession’s fluvial channels system. (**F**) represent RGB color blending at \(-138\) ms, exposing a continental meandering fluvial channel with paleo-flow trajectory from north to south. A minor sinuous channel is shown in the middle of the map-view. A medium sinuous channel is displayed with several tributaries at the southwest of the map view. (**G**) The time slice of the RGB color blending at \(-174\) ms, displaying a continental low sinuous channel in the middle of the map-view with paleo-flow trajectory from north to south. (**H**) Explanation diagram highlighting the targeted channel with its tributaries and paleo-flow trajectory. Figure 5A-H shows a series of seismic volume time slices at different two way travel time (TWT). Details of the main fluvial systems viewed at \(-50\), \(-68\), \(-90\), \(-111\), \(-138\), and \(-174\) ms can be found in Figures 5 and 6. The sedimentary characteristics shown in Figure 5 have also been explained in the discussion part. A quick investigation (Figure 5A-H and Figure 6A1-C4) of the time slices display complicated views of grouped channels that appear to be overlaid on each other. These are map-views of channels and channel belts' directions that have been carefully spaced out in the vertical direction. This distribution makes it challenging to distinguish genetically different geomorphic characteristics in one 3D time slice. That is to say, 3D seismic slices cannot display the closely spaced geomorphic elements; therefore, they seem to exist on certain time slices, even though they are not  
Figure 6: The map-view slides of continental channel belts and channels prominent at \(-138\) ms. Slides (**A1–A3**) represent the time slices of RGB color blending seismic attribute at two way travel time (TWT) 138 ms, while (**B1**) shows a map-view representing the major geomorphological and depositional features of the southwest part of the studied area. Slide (**B2**) represents the meandering middle channels extended from the north to south, with the delineation of geomorphological elements.
