Seismic reflection data are used to characterize Earth’s subsurface. The data are one of the fundamental inputs to the petroleum exploration process. We are interested in both acquiring new licenses from vendors like SEI that maintain large data libraries for sale as well as reprocessing raw data using modern methods, in areas of the highest priority.
