Qademah Fault Project

Sept. – Oct. 2014

Objective

        Two data sets are collected, the first is active-source data set, and the second is a passive data set.

Geophones and cables are planted on Sept. 25, 2014. We used 12 lines each line has 24 receivers. The inline interval is 5 m and the crossline interval is 10 m.

Acquisition Layout

        We used 288 receiver arranged in 12 parallel lines, each line has 24 receiver. Inline offset is 5 m and crossline offset is 10 m (see Figure 2).

One shot is fired at each receiver location (see Figure 3).

We use the 40 kgm weight drop as seismic source (Figure 4), with 8 to 15 stacks at each shot location.
