Lithology identification, fracture orientations, stress field characterizations, and fluid discrimination are all vital bits of information that become available when combining shear wave data with conventional P-wave data. Existing methods for acquiring multicomponent seismic data are very expensive and time consuming.</p><p class="paragraph_style_3" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 15px; margin: 0px; opacity: 1; padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0px;">VertiShear Technology unlocks multicomponent seismic benefits from legacy 1C library data, and expands 3C data to become 9C data from a single vertical force source acquisition, thus allowing geophysicists to dramatically improve their production decisions without incurring the traditional multicomponent acquisition’s high costs.</p>
