Advances in Geophysics
Seismic data from current and past surveys can both be loaded into
seismic software which is used in 3D seismic interpretation.
Vertical Seismic Profiling (VSP)
It is a measurement where the seismic source is still at the
surface but the receivers are lowered down into a borehole.
Types of VSP
Types of VSP
VSP Application
Velocity estimation. This is usually called a “check-shot
survey”.
Precise correlation of surface seismic data with depth and the
well-logs.
Separation of primary reflections from multiples for guidance
in seismic section.
Calibrate reflectivity coefficients from well log data.
Provide seismic data processing parameters –velocity, multiple
suppression, deconvolution.
