A selection of the top seismic foldouts published so far in 2020; showcasing stunning subsurface geology acquired using state-of-the-art seismic acquisition technology.
The Seismic Foldouts are a very popular feature of GEO ExPro magazine, with 2-3 usually published in each issue. They are designed to showcase the latest seismic data and interpretations, acquired using state-of-the-art seismic acquisition technology in some of the hottest hydrocarbon exploration regions around the world.
Here, we have selected the most popular ones published so far in 2020 (in no particular order).
