Experimenting Single Vibrator Seismic Acquisition

B005 Experimenting Single Vibrator Seismic Acquisition J. Meunier* (CGG) T. Bianchi (CGG) & S. Ragab (Shell Egypt NV) SUMMARY In order to prove both the technical and operational efficiency of the single vibrator technique an experiment was conducted with 12 single-vibrator fleets operating in slip sweep mode with a slip time equal to the listening time. The average productivity over the entire test duration was 590 VPs/hour. The processed single vibrator data compares favorably with production data.
