Onshore Nodal Seismic Surveys: Critical Lessons Learned from Recent Projects
Hear first-hand, the top lessons learned from over 100 land seismic acquisition projects, spanning conventional survey designs through to ultra-high-density surveys acquired across the globe.
Understand how you can apply these learnings to your next onshore seismic acquisition program to guarantee cost savings and access to high-resolution subsurface images, more efficiently than ever before.
Nodal technology is quickly becoming the preferred solution for land seismic acquisition as it reduces total project CAPEX and OPEX whilst also enabling flexible survey design and simpler field operations. Nodes are unlocking cost, efficiency, and imaging benefits for seismic acquisition contractors and end users of seismic data alike.
Grab your free pass to join a team of highly experienced land seismic experts who will discuss the real-life impact of using nodal technology to acquire seismic data in a variety of terrains and environments and share the key lessons they learned along the way, covering:
Operational efficiency
- Crew size, production rates, logistics, vehicle requirements, and timeline
- Acquisition costs
- Emissions and HSE risk
Seismic image resolution
- Data processing
- Comparisons of nodal vs cabled geophone data
In this free webinar, you'll also gain:
- Exclusive access to key learnings from over 100 recent land seismic projects acquired using state-of-the-art nodal receiver systems
- Best-practice techniques for ensuring high-quality data and subsurface images are obtained
- An understanding of how moving to nodal acquisition can maximize the efficiency and productivity of your next onshore seismic survey
- Guidance on survey planning for high-density and conventional seismic data acquisition techniques using nodal technology
