Geometric

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001677

Relating to the spatial arrangement, shape, and size of geological features or seismic survey configurations. Geometric spreading describes the decrease in seismic wave amplitude due to the expansion of the wavefront as it travels through the subsurface. Geometric corrections are applied to seismic data to account for variations in source and receiver positions.
