Multi Transient EM

The MTEMĀ® technique produces resistivity profiles over prospective reservoirs to identify hydrocarbons before committing to costly drilling programs. The use of MTEM technology dramatically reduces the risk of drilling dry holes; including MTEM surveys in your workflow will cut the costs of doing business and increase your profitability. With patented breakthrough technology MTEM (Multi-Transient Electro-Magnetic) provides a complete acquisition and processing technique for prospects both on land and offshore.

MTEM combines the Seismic and EM techniques to generate data which are conditioned using signal processing for reliable results far less influenced by user control of models. The technique uses stacking, multiple offsets, deconvolution, velocity analysis etc. to produce real time results in the field. Back in the office advanced processing and inversion are used to produce absolute resistivities as a function of depth. Read more
