Vertical Seismic Profiling: Principles - Tapa dura

...This book provides a practical description of the theory and applications of vertical seismic profiling (VSP). Intended for field geophysicists, this third and revised edition focuses on newer equipment developments, field techniques, data processing and expanded examples of VSP use in exploration and development. Detailed diagrams and an extensive reference list accompany the text.

The book is a comprehensive and concise systematic presentation of the technique of Vertical Seismic Profiling for the study of subsurface properties and structure. Compared to the previous editions from 1983 and 1985, the 1999 edition will contain much new material on equipment advances (in the fields of, a.o., multi-level receiver arrays, small diameter receivers, vertical cable arrays, fiber optic cable) and expanded applications (such as, reverse VSP, drill bit source, 3-D VSP imaging, stratigraphic calibration of 3-D seismic images, crosswell profiling, single-well imaging systems). Also, the new book will contain reflections on the industry VSP research climate and the role of the US National laboratories in VSP Research.
