Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using gravity, magnetic,<br>magnetotellurics (MMT) and electromagnetic (EM) data in the sub-basalt imaging problem.<br>The Møre volcanic margin is a part of the mid-Norwegian margin and consists of a central<br>area of NE-SW trending deep Cretaceous basin. The basin is flanked to the west by the Møre<br>Marginal High that is characterized by thick, Early Eocene basalt flows overlying an<br>unknown substrate. Numerous previous experiments have demonstrated that standard seismic<br>acquisition and processing techniques are not capable of characterizing the volcanics or<br>imaging beneath it.
