Introduction
Bell Geospace acquires Full Tensor Gravity Gradiometry (FTG) worldwide for petroleum, mining, and groundwater exploration.
With over ten years experience, Bell Geospace provides assistance and service for all stages of the FTG exploration program:
- Survey planning and management:
- Data acquisition & quality control:
- Data processing:
- Data Interpretation:
When used for appropriate purposes, FTG can be a powerful tool to obtain an image of the geologic structure and to locate exploration targets. Since Bell Geospace realizes that no technology offers "the Holy Grail" of geophysics, Bell Geospace offers free forward model sensitivity studies to help determine whether FTG is an appropriate tool for a particular project. If FTG is deemed to be appropriate, the model aids in the design of an optimum survey plan for the exploration goals, taking into account both the survey objectives and local geographical and geological constraints.
Bell Geospace continuously develops and refines methods and techniques to enhance and monitor data quality.
Bell Geospace's advanced processing methods minimize noise and improve the geologic FTG signal.
Bell Geospace acquires all 5 independent gradient tensor components from which geologic models can be developed with greater precision and more confidence.
Bell Geospace utilizes all available interpretation tools and has developed in-house methods to obtain maximum information from the five independent tensor components.
