Seabed Seismic Techniques

Seabed Seismic is growing rapidly and has captured the interest of the Geophysical Industry since it became commercial in the North Sea in 1996, as towed-streamer methods have shown some inadequacy in yielding desired reservoir/subsurface images. Between 2007 and 2010, OBC acquisition increased by over 210% in awarded contract cost. Despite the remarkable progress in research and publications, it has been difficult coming across a books that deal with the techniques of seabed seismic. Oil & Gas companies are continually seeking to recover oil from challenging reserves, and Seabed Seismic has been a major solution to many of the challenges.

This book introduces the general perspectives and techniques of seabed seismic, including seismic data QC procedures and processing keys . Are you an Executive, a Geophysicist, or a Professional?
