Gas hydrate is known as a potential source of hydrocarbon energy. However, the detection of exploitation of this resource is still inexpressive. This is due to two factors: the diculty of detecting pro table areas of gas hydrates and due to the high risk involved in exploration. In this study, an analysis is presented to detect possible areas of gas hydrate ocurrence in a region of Tumbes-Progresso Basin, using geophysical data: magnetic, gravity, seismic and borehole (well data). It presents three approaches to demarcate the possible zones of hydrate: First, magnetic and gravity anomalies analyzed with respect to the geology and the study area that was chosen. It was subsequently made a seismic imaging the region of interest and the gas hydrates has been identied based on the presence identication of BSR (Bottom Simulating Refletor), This reflector correspond to a limit between gas hydrate and free gas zone. BSR potential was applied the AVO analysis (Amplitude Versus Oset). Finally, in the third approach, well data are evaluated, calculating the porosity and saturation of the rock in the gas hydrate stability zone. According to the analysis presented, It was veried the occurrence of gas hydrate in the study area.
