    3-D seismic data are collected in bins.

    EXAMPLE OF IMAGED FAULT

    D a n b om G e op hy si cs

    ORIENTATION OF 2-D LINE...

    There is an axiom in reflection

    seismology that says orientation

    of the seismic reflection line is

    the single most important item in

    acquisition and processing of thedata. These lines, taken from a

    3-D data volume illustrate this.

    HERES A GOOD IDEA

    D a n b om G e op hy si cs

    Certain identified formational

    tops can be isolated in the 3-D

    data volume and then the other

    data can be made transparent...

    3-D SURVEY WITH

    GEOPHONES

    For this example the seismic

    data shown have been 3-D

    migrated and the marine data

    acquisition was acquired with

    geophones connected to theocean bottom instead of

    hydrophones trailed in a

    streamer behind the boat.
