<p>A method of analysing results from a controlled source electromagnetic survey of a region of interest containing a previously identified geological structure suitable for bearing hydrocarbons is described. The method comprises providing a first survey data set obtained outside the region of interest, i.e. off-target, for a range of source-receiver orientations and offsets, and providing a second survey data set obtained inside the region of interest, i.e. on target, for a range of source-receiver offsets. The method further comprises performing a mathematical inversion of the first survey data set to provide a model of the subterranean strata outside the region of interest, and processing the second survey data set to provide a model of the subterranean strata inside the region of interest, wherein the processing of the second survey data set takes account of the results of the inversion of the first survey data set.</p> |
