Sub-basalt imaging workshop

A workshop on sub-basalt imaging will be held in London, United Kingdom, on 30 October 1997. The workshop is organized by the Centre for Marine and Petroleum Technology (CMPT), with support from the Community's specific RTD programme in the field of non-nuclear energy (JOULE/THERMIE).

The workshop aims to cover the latest developments in technology for seismic imaging of deeper reflectors in areas where high velocity layers (HVLs) can hinder the process. Rock salt and basalt, particularly in the Atlantic Margin and Greenland are typical of such HVLs.

Presentations will be given by representatives of companies and researchers involved in the field. The event will provide a technological road map explaining where and when the hydrocarbons industry intends this technology to demonstrate its full potential. Routes to achieving these aims will be explored, along with opportunities for future collaboration.
