3D seismic survey

A 3D seismic survey is a method used by geologists and energy companies to map underground rock formations. It involves sending sound waves into the Earth using specialized equipment called vibrators or air guns. These waves travel through the underground layers and reflect back to sensors on the surface. By recording the arrival times and strengths of these reflections, experts create detailed three-dimensional images of the subsurface geology. This helps identify potential oil and gas reservoirs or other mineral deposits, improving exploration accuracy and reducing the need for costly drilling.
