Analysing Full Tensor Gravity Data with Intuitive Imaging Techniques

Full Tensor Gravity Gradiometry (FTG) has proven to be an effective tool for both the Oil and Gas and Mineral exploration industries since it was introduced in the late 1990s. The multi component gravity surveying technology provides a rich source of information that lends itself ideally suited to imaging and delineating key geological structure. New techniques involving invariant analysis have been developed that facilitate quick and efficient imaging to extract detailed geological information. This paper presents these imaging techniques applied to data collected over the Vinton Dome in Louisiana.
