«The collected seismic data will enable the client to confidently address geological challenges related to oil and gas exploration prospects in this area,» the company stated.
MOGT involves multiple registrations and accumulations of seismic wave signals reflected at different angles from the same subsurface point. This method allows for the determination of depths and boundaries of geological formations and hydrocarbon traps.
GEOTEK also employed its latest field geophysical research equipment—the Vostok BV62T self-propelled seismic signal unit.
It is worth noting that on January 19, the company reported demonstration tests of the Vostok BV62T unit for major players in the Russian oil and gas sector, including NOVATEK, Gazprom Nedra, and Rosneft. The tests confirmed the stability of the equipment, with a minimum calculated frequency at full power of 3.6 Hz—outperforming similar models used in Russia.
Following the completion of work in the Orenburg region, GEOTEK specialists have moved on to a new 3D seismic survey project in the Samara region.
«The challenges of seismic exploration in this area include complex tectonic features, a well-developed hydrographic network, the presence of settlements, road and rail infrastructure, as well as weather conditions,» GEOTEK described the scope of the new project.
