Activity	Finding
Marine-seismic reflection and refraction surveys of the Makran Accretionary prism offshore	Traced BSRs at 500 m - 800 m below seafloor
Marine-seismic reflection and refraction surveys of the Makran Accretionary prism offshore	Confirmed the traces of BSRs within 800 m range from seafloor
Marine-seismic reflection and refraction surveys of the Makran Accretionary prism offshore	Identified frozen methane in ice lattice structures
Marine-seismic reflection and refraction surveys of the Makran Accretionary prism offshore	Confirmed the presence of natural gas in frozen sediments
Compressional wave velocity analysis on BSRs	Notified the presence of free gas in Makran accretionary prism
Conducted 3D seismic reflection	Notified the presence of free gas below seafloor
