Exorcising the Ghosts – The New Streamer Technology Launched by PGS
PGS claims to have built a marine seismic streamer that is capable of removing receiver ghosts, thereby enhancing frequency bandwidth and seismic resolution. If proven by full-scale field tests, this could be a major break-through in seismic acquisition.

Understanding electro-magnetic surveys
Electromagnetic surveying is one of the least well understood of the non-seismic exploration techniques. There are various acquisition choices to be made - for example it can be undertaken using both horizontal and vertical transmitters/receivers. To understand the physics it pays off to use an analogy with heat waves.
