3D seismic tomography images at a fraction of the cost of 2D conventional seismic

LandTech was the first company to apply passive seismic services to the oil industry since its establishment in 1998 and has become the leader in High Resolution 3-D Passive Seismic Tomography surveys worldwide.

By using innovative in-house designed seismometers and recording all little cracks and groans of the earth (microearthquakes) we use them as seismic sources (similar to the way a medical CAT-scan uses X-rays) to derive high resolution 3D seismic tomography images of compressional P-wave velocities, shear S-wave velocities, Poison's ratio seismic attenuation or quality factor Qp for the whole of an exploration block no matter how difficult the topography is and at a fraction of the cost of conventional seismic. Patented neural technology provides lithological information and proposes drilling sites possessing the highest probability for successful wells. This technique has nothing to do with the so called direct hydrocarbon indicator or low frequency passive seismic which is based on the assumption that a hydrocarbon field alters the natural seismic noise, something which is not true!
