Basic Geophysics - In-house training by PetroSkillsThis course can be conducted on site at your location exclusively for your staff. The course is designed to familiarize anyone using seismic data with the nature of the data and what it specifically represents. One of the key goals of the course is to explain the large and confusing amount of "jargon" that is used by the Geophysical community when they use seismic data. The course is supplemented by a large number of case histories that concretely illustrate the principles in the course material. These are updated with every course presentation to keep up with the rapidly developing technology in this field. Each section of the course is supported with a classroom exercise. The course participants are given a data-thumb drive that contains the case histories, class exercises and all of the extensive PowerPoint animations used in the classroom.Find out more
