Seismic Data Acquisition

Select the most favorable seismic acquisition configuration for the area of interest. Select source and receiver array for proposed survey. Evaluate trade-off between 2-D and 3-D acquisition for the exploration objective. Upon completion of the course, the learner will be able to: understand the primary principles of seismic survey design, identify the basic concepts and field operations involved in seismic data acquisition, contrast differences between 2-D and 3-D acquisition, describe key elements of marine vs. non-marine acquisition, evaluate horizontal and vertical seismic resolution, and evaluate practical considerations in survey design.

Expiration: This course expires 12 months from date of registration.
