SENDING A SEISMIC TRACE TO SURFACE AFTER A VERTICAL SEISMIC PROFILING WHILE DRILLING MEASUREMENT

摘要

A system, method and computer-readable medium for acquiring seismic data, which includes activating a seismic source at a surface location; defining a seismic trace of a seismic wave received at a downhole location on a bottomhole assembly in a borehole in response to the activation of the seismic source; compressing the seismic trace; and recording the compressed seismic trace to a storage medium.
