Multi-Component Seismic Analysis

 Multi-component seismic analysis utilizes both compressional (P-wave) and shear (S-wave) seismic data to gain a more detailed understanding of the subsurface. By recording seismic waves in multiple directions, this technique allows for improved differentiation between rock types and fluids, better imaging of complex geological structures, and enhanced fracture characterization. Multi-component analysis is particularly effective in detecting anisotropy and provides more accurate subsurface models, leading to better reservoir characterization and exploration outcomes.
