Tectonic feature characterization for a preliminary study for heavy infrastructures
Preliminary studies for heavy and sensitive infrastructure construction require a detailed analysis of seismic risk (faults).
A high frequency vibrator was of choice for the requirements of this study. Over 27 kilometers of very high resolution seismic exploration were acquired within this project.
A detailed analysis allowed not only the creation of P-wave sections, but also of very high resolution S-wave sections in the first tens of meters.

Parallel profile acquisition and result interpretation through 3D software allows us to create a high precision geological model. In this case, the model is of the first underlying kilometer.
