How Earth’s Orbit Could Guide Oil Exploration in Sedimentary Basins
Introduction: A New Angle on an Old Problem Oil exploration has long relied on seismic surveys, well logs, and surface mapping. In recent years, researchers have increasingly turned to orbiting platforms to complement ground-based methods. By analyzing how Earth’s gravity, magnetism, and surface reflectivity vary from space, scientists can spot subtle clues about buried sedimentary…
