Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) seismic techiques are rapidly becoming more acceptable as a geophysical exploration tool, especially as a tool for field development. This article reviews the procedures for 3D seismic data collection, processing and interpretation used in both land and marine environments. This is the third article in a series on new geophysical exploration technologies. 16 refs.
