3D
Survey Evaluation and Design
Services
Polaris Explorer Ltd. can provide a
wide range of 3D Seismic Design solutions, optimizing
subsurface imagery while controlling costs and
environmental footprints.
Theoretical Design
By closely analyzing client
provided:
 |
Target
range of depths |
 |
Previous 2D stack
sections |
 |
Existing
velocity-depth models and filter
panels |
Polaris can supply a number of
effective theoretical design options
accompanied with and supported by:
 |
Calculated optimal bin size to
maximize available high
frequencies |
 |
Multiple
offset-range and unique coverage plots to
ensure target fold |
 |
Offset and azimuth
plots, as well as rose diagrams showing the
distribution of fold, to demonstrate required
even coverage |
 |
Migration aperture
options based on dip and client requirements |
 |
Complete receiver
and source point statistics i.e. line lengths,
EOL-BOL, point density, total points
|
Offset Design
Once the design that
best meets the client's objectives
is chosen, a detailed offset plan is
generated using, where available:
 |
Digital
elevation models (DEM) |
 |
Culture spatial
data (pipelines, roads, etc.) |
 |
Geo-referenced and
ortho-rectified digital aerial and/or satellite,
photography |
 |
Geographical
information systems (GIS) |
 |
Permit
restrictions |
 |
Safety and
environmental concerns |

Offset Design is performed to
maximize geophysical integrity
of the Theoretical Design while producing
a safe,
operationally efficient and
environmentally sound program.
Polaris can provide
the 3D Seismic Design solutions to achieve your goals.
