A vertical seismic profile (VSP) is recorded in essentially the same way as a checkshot survey. [3] [4] The major difference between a VSP and a checkshot survey is that VSP data are recorded at much smaller spatial sampling intervals than checkshots. While a receiver may be moved a vertical distance of 200 to depth::1000 ft (61 to 305 m ...

Wireline-conveyed tools and systems are used to acquire high-resolution seismic images in and beyond the borehole. Many subsurface imaging problems cannot be solved without a 3D survey, and when a survey also needs to be performed in the borehole, the solution is 3D vertical seismic profile (VSP) technology.
Conventional vertical seismic profiles (VSPs) are recorded by lowering receivers, usually geophones but increasingly accelerometers, contained within shuttles down a well where they are anchored to the borehole wall using clamps or bowsprings. A seismic source (often located adjacent to the well-head, i.e. at zero-offset) is then activated and ...
