REGIONAL SEISMIC PROFILES COMPILATION

The UK Onshore Geophysical is pleased to announce the launch of a new initiative, which we hope will provide a valuable resource to explorationists, academics and amateur geologists alike.

Utilising our unique archive of onshore seismic surveys as acquired by the exploration industry, we have embarked on a program to compile a series of reprocessed composite profiles providing a new regional insight across basins.

The aim is to allow local areas of interest to be viewed in a regional context, gaining a better understanding of the development of basins over time and, in the case of economic geologists, assisting in the search for trends of interest in support of future licensing applications.

Data Availability:
JPEG images of the results can be freely accessed through the UKOGL web site.

Profile Coverage Status KM
UKOGL-RG-001 Sussex Coast (S) to Surrey (N) Released 73
UKOGL-RG-002 Solway (W) to Northumberland (E) Released 159
UKOGL-RG-003 Whitby (N) to Humber (S) Released 116
UKOGL-RG-004 Wytch Farm(S) to Oxford Basin (N) Released 228
UKOGL-RG-005 Welsh Borders (W) to Lincolnshire Coast (E) Released 299
UKOGL-RG-006 Birmingham (S) to Lancaster (N) Early 2012 298

Data Processing:
The transition from discrete individual multi vintage profiles to the final cohesive merged presentations incorporated reprocessing work as carried out by TESLA International and consisted of the following key stages:

  1. All constituent parts tied together utilising variable shifts based on key horizons.
  2. FX Deconvolution.
  3. Time Variant Bandpass.
  4. Variable Finite Difference Post Stack Time Migration.
  5. AGC.

Cost:
Each profile is available under a fixed cost Full Licence and output charge of £1,000 per profile, providing both a Filtered Stack and Migrated workstation ready SEG-Y version with navigation data.

Supplementary Release:
UKOGL also has access to a number of historical merged profiles as compiled by operators active onshore in the UK. These are being made available in their original form without any additional processing at a fixed cost Full Licence and output charge of £500 per profile.
