Abstract
A continuous seismic monitoring system developed by CGG, Gaz de France (GdF) and Institut Français du Pétrole (IFP), is now being deployed at the Gaz de France reservoir in Saint-Clair-sur-Epte, north west of Paris, after a successful four-year testing period on site at Céré-la-Ronde, France. Based on a permanent network of seismic sources and vertical buried receiver antennae, SeisMovie is used to log subtle variations which might go undetected using conventional 4D techniques. In this article CGG describes the technology and how the absence of a seismic crew means data are collected with minimum environmental impact.
