The logging data was recorded by Schlumberger in LDF format. All processing, including first arrival picking and stacking, was performed by Schlumberger during Expedition . The data was then converted into SEGY format at USIO/LDEO, using code developed in house.

 

Stacks are generally calculated with at least nine good traces.

 

All the data in the SEGY files are sorted shot by shot (i.e. chronologically).
