Sercel True Broadband : 8-Octave Capability

Acquiring the broadest possible seismic data is beneficial to seismic imaging, in particular in terms of vertical resolution, the ability to built accurate velocity models and perform state-of-the-art inversions, in particular full-wave inversions. However, the term “broadband” is regularly associated to an extension towards the low frequencies only, whereas it should reflect an overall extension of the signal bandwidth.

True broadband is achievable only with a proper combination of hardware associated to its optimum field implementation with advanced acquisition scenarios, each of them contributing to the bandwidth extension and preservation of the signal quality.
