Title:
DETERMINING SEAWATER CONDUCTIVITY FOR THE COMPENSATION OF ELECTROMAGNETICS-BASED SURVEY DATA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2009/045588
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A technique includes obtaining seismic data, which was acquired during a seismic survey in seawater. The technique includes based on the seismic data, determining a conductivity of the seawater and processing data obtained from an electromagnetics-based survey based on the determined conductivity.
