Abstract
Increased efficiency of finding and developing hydrocarbon resources while reducing the environmental impact through geophysical technology is critical to the future of the petroleum industry. This technology must remotely determine rock-fluid property characteristics; their geometry, and changes over time. In reviewing advancements in exploration seismology, threecomponent 3-D seismology stands out as the next wave and lends promise to the continued role that geophysics will play in the future of the petroleum industry.
