GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF SEISMIC ACQUISITION Sample Clauses

GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF SEISMIC ACQUISITION. ‌ Marine geophysical seismic surveys are an integral component of offshore oil and gas exploration and development activities, and are used to define possible sub-seabed deposits and promising geological structures. During marine seismic surveys, a slow moving survey vessel (typically steaming at 4 to 6 knots) tows an impulse emitting sound source (an array of multiple airguns). The sound reflects off the sea bottom and the seismic data are recorded by onboard computers and processed to produce profiles of the sub-seabed geology. The data are interpreted by geophysicists to identify potential locations of hydrocarbon reservoirs. A schematic diagram of marine seismic survey operations is provided in Figure 6.2. The 2D survey vessels will have a single long cable (called streamer), of a length between 6 and 8 km, while the 3D vessels have multiple streamers (typically 4 - 20) that are between 3 and 6 km in length, and are towed at a spacing of up to 120 m from one another (Figures 6.3 and 6.4).
