Goal: The goal of this lab is to practice being a geologist.
Part #1
You will be given a set of data taken by the KGS field team. They have conducted a seismic survey and processed the data to calculate the speed of sound in various layers of rock.
Your job: Calculate the density of the rock at each grid point.

Part #2 :
Now you are ready to convert the seismic raw data to a meaningful map, which might show where oil has formed and its trapped.

Part #3 :
With these cross sections of rock density , you now have enough information to make proposal to BP about where to drill . Yur project manager will write the final report to BP (likely a 100 page document containing detailed images of the proposed site , as well as information on optimal drilling angles , depths , speeds, type of rock and many other important details).
