Seismic surveys are subject to many different design criteria, but often the parameters are established based on an outdated view of how data can be acquired and how it will be processed. This book highlights what is possible using modern acquisition methods, techniques, and equipment, and how these may impact seismic survey design and acquisition.

Details the properties of 3D acquisition geometries and shows how they naturally lead to the 3D symmetric sampling approach to 3D survey design. Many examples are used to illustrate choices of acquisition parameters, and the link between survey parameters and noise suppression as well as imaging is an intrinsic part of the contents.

This book introduces simultaneous source technology and helps those who practice it succeed. Although the book does not include all developments, which would have en­tailed a much longer treatise, this work is written through the lens of decades of experiences and allows readers to understand the development of independent simultaneous sourcing. The relationships between data acquisition and data processing are discussed because never before have they been so intertwined as in this area. In addition to describing the underlying technologies, this book also is a user-guide which discusses survey design and acquisition and decribes the sensitivities of the processing algorithms which can allow simultaneous source technology to succeed. The audience for this book includes acquisition and pro­cessing geophysicists who will work with these data as well as those who require only an overview of the state of the art; and, even though they may not need the full technical details, they may want to know the limitations and advantages of using simultaneous sources.

Elements of 3D Seismology, third edition is a thorough introduction to the acquisition, processing, and interpretation of 3D seismic data. This third edition is a major update of the second edition. Sections dealing with interpretation have been greatly revised in accordance with improved understanding and availability of data and software. Practice exercises have been added, as well as a 3D seismic survey predesign exercise. Discussions include: conceptual and historical foundations of modern reflection seismology; an overview of seismic wave phenomena in acoustic, elastic, and porous media; acquisition principles for land and marine seismic surveys; methods used to create 2D and 3D seismic images from field data; concepts of dip moveout, prestack migration, and depth migration; concepts and limitations of 3D seismic interpretation for structure, stratigraphy, and rock property estimation; and the interpretation role of attributes, impedance estimation, and AVO. This book is intended as a general text on reflection seismology, including wave propagation, data acquisition, processing, and interpretation and will be of interest to entry-level geophysicists, experts in related fields (geology, petroleum engineering), and experienced geophysicists in one subfield wishing to learn about another (e.g., interpreters wanting to learn about seismic waves or data acquisition).

The rapid development of seismic acquisition, including wide-azimuth surveys, increased channel count, and simultaneous shooting, is made possible by technological advancements today that will enable the production of clearer seismic images tomorrow. The core of this book is the relationship between acquisition parameters and seismic image quality.

This book deals with the optimization technique of seismic data acquisition parameter. Each aspect of acquisition parameter has been discussed in detail. Chapter-one deals with the general technique of seismic data acquisition and common meaning of some of the terms being used in exploration seismic in on land and offshore areas, particularly about characteristics of source & receiver and acquisition techniques. Chapter-two deals with the optimization of Geometrical Parameters i.e. far-offset distance, near-offset distance, group interval, effective array length, foldage, line orientation and line length. Chapter-three deals with the optimization of Source Parameters. Basic goal of optimization is to have required resolution and signal to noise ratio in the acquired data. For explosive source, shot hole depth, charge size and lithology of the medium surrounding the charge are three parameters which decide the source signature. First of all records with different depths below the weathering layer with equal charge size is taken. Signal to noise ratio and peak frequency of the signal at the main zone of interest is computed. Amplitude spectra of different traces at main zone of interest are also compared for all the records. Record giving highest peak frequency and signal to noise ratio corresponds to optimum depth. Now keeping this depth fixed, charge size is varied and record are taken. Again signal to noise ratio, peak frequency and amplitude spectra are compared and a suitable one is selected on the basis of frequency content and signal to noise ratio. In the case of land airgun, Number of airgun, number of pops and air gun patterns are the main parameters, which decide signal to noise ratio. In the case of Vibroseis, sweep length, end frequencies of the sweep and Vibroseis pattern are the main parameters to be optimized in the field. In marine work marine air gun is the widely used marine seismic source. Peak to peak amplitude, primary to bubble ratio (PBR) and bandwidth of the amplitude spectrum are the deciding parameters for selection of source.Chapter-four deals with the Source/Receiver Array Parameters. Effective array length, element's weighting and spacing are the parameters to be optimized on the basis of desired seismic resolution as well as degree of attenuation of coherent noise. Effectiveness of the array is examined by fold-back experiment and f-k diagram.Chapter-five deals with the Recording System & Quality Control. Silent features have been discussed here, which are essential to be adhered in the field so that objective of the survey is achieved.
