Weight-drop seismic exploration system
Patent
·
OSTI ID:5656054
A method of seismic exploration and a system which provides the capability for increasing the number of depth points from which seismic data are acquired are disclosed. This increase in data is realized without increasing the number of recording channels or the number of geophone stations employed in the system. A higher common depth point multiplicity is achieved by separating energy sources in relation to geophone stations. The recording system is capable of automatically sorting out the data from different energy sources and storing it in different blocks of a memory. Since substantially all available recording time is fully utilized by using energy sources to their optimum efficiency, higher common-depth-point multiplicity can be achieved with minimum field costs.
