Seismic surveys are a major investment and a key asset. Failure to archive all the different component items of survey acquisition and processing data to a single, safe, and known archive can carry a heavy cost in the long run. Continue reading to find out how best to look after your seismic data..
I don’t know about you but one of the most enjoyable and rewarding aspects of working in geoscience for me is actually in getting it wrong! Where would the fun be if things always turned out just as we predicted? The mantra ‘expect the unexpected’ comes to mind when dealing with sub-surface data. The flexible geoscientist recognises the flaws in their data and uses their geological nous to fill in the gaps and to consider what might be, rather than what the data seems to be showing them. This spectacular example illustrates the point and, through a seismic re-processing exercise, happily delivers the ‘big reveal’. Read on..
Does the OGA’s 2016 high-resolution 2D seismic provide the crucial master key in unlocking hidden potential?
However you say it, the world’s geology does not see political borders the same way us humans do. Rocks are inherently less territorial! At Merlin, we have increasingly recognised the value in transferring knowledge across political boundaries.
