This study has focused on the result of seismic data. The first stage of basin formation is the opening of Neo- Tethys Sea which is Simultaneous with Dashtak, Kangan and Khaneh kat Formation and after that on the early to middle Triassic sediments an unconformity that can be named as an expansion of sedimentary basin in the upper Triassic happened. This stage of basin opening caused the formation of big faults and probably basement faults in the area that studying on this faults and their movements is the main goal of this study. The next stage of evolution of basin starts when the basin began to closure and still there is disagreement about the exact time; but the obvious thing is the four compressional events: first, from Cenomanian- Turonian up to Masstrichtian; second, Late Paleocene- Early Eocene; third, Late Oligocene-Miocene and the forth, Miocene up to Quaternary. All events caused to obduction of Ophiolite and sedimentation of Gurpi with partly erosion and Pabdeh with regional erosion, then disappearing formations such as Asmari and Gachsaran and at the end, the late Zagros orogenic phase which is the compression that is continues to this day.

Coherency attribute is one of the proper tools in interpretation of structural discontinuities and stratigraphy features in 3-D seismic data. Coherency measurements in three dimensions discuss trace-to-trace similarity and therefore represent interpretable changes in these cases. The similar traces are mapped with high coherence coefficients while anomalies and discontinuities have low coherence coefficients. Coherency attribute shows evaluation criterion of lateral changes in the seismic response, caused by variation in structure, stratigraphy, lithology, porosity and the presence of hydrocarbon. Output of this attribute is a coherence cube which illustrates structural discontinuities and stratigraphy features with higher resolution. In this paper, the application of two conventional coherency attributes based on eigenstructure and crosscorrelation for detection of faults in 3-D synthetic seismic data and actual seismic data is presented.
Considering the experimental results, this method has an appropriate response to low SNR for 3-D synthetic models and 3-D actual data. In addition, the comparison of eigenstructure -based coherency attribute method with crosscorrelation-based coherency attribute method indicates the former has higher resolution for detection faults than the latter.
