This paper focuses on the detection of hydrocarbon layers under the seabed using Electromagnetic methods and to prove the relationship between the thickness and resistivity constrast of the hydrocarbon. Simulations have been carried out by varying the depth of seawater from 1000m to 100m and the res...
