Ocean bottom seismic has been gaining market share over high-end streamer acquisition. One of the ground-breaking technologies within acquisition is Magseis’ Marine Autonomous Seismic System Until recently, 90% of the…

Borehole Gravity for Reservoir Monitoring A shiny, one-inch round, miniature gravity meter is providing key bits of information about the distribution of pore fluids for reservoir monitoring. High-resolution borehole gravity…

Norwegian start-up company inApril explain why they took the plunge into the ocean bottom seismic market. It is sometimes said that it took nearly 30 years for towed-streamer 3D marine…

New ideas in acquisition and processing are finally realizing the full potential of broadband data. Traditional towed streamer marine seismic acquisition has been stuck with the same old geometries for…

eSource is a tunable, flexible seismic source which reduces the high frequency emissions that can affect marine life. Everyone working in the oil and gas industry is aware of the importance of…

Seismic amplitude changes may tell us something about reservoir lithology, porosity, and/or fluids. However, seismic tuning effects are potentially much larger than amplitude variations due to geological changes. Understanding this…

Seismic supply companies are helping operators face the downturn by providing cost-effective enhancements to existing product portfolios. With the oil price for this year staying at the low levels seen…
