From November 2006 to March 2007, Sirte Oil Company successfully conducted the first application of the WesternGeco Q-Land single-sensor seismic system in Libya. The goal was to see if single-sensor acquisition and processing of 3D seismic data could enhance the seismic data resolution and help construct a more accurate reservoir model of Libya’s challenging Lehib field. Compared to conventional acquisition methods, the Lehib survey showed an improved signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio and broader bandwidth over the target zone. One key to its success was the ability to integrate acquisition geometry, source design, processing, and interpretation.
