Summary

Messara sedimentary basin located at Central Crete, Greece is covered by Quaternary andNeogene formations. Seismic reflection data along a 30 km W-E seismic line acquired by the HellenicPetroleum Company (HPC) at Messara basin is reprocessed. The Kirchoff migrated data weresubsequently spectrally balanced using a Ricker wavelet. The reprocessed seismic section provides animproved image of the shallow structures delineating a number of continuous reflectors in the upperNeogene formations. The maximum depth to the top of the preNeogene basement reaches 1000 m alongseismic line Z1. Two structures are also imaged, the former consists of several thrust sheets and the latteris regarded as a positive flower structure. These reprocessed seismic data depict for the first time thesubsurface structure of an extended area.
