PROCÉDÉ DE DÉTERMINATION DE LA POSITION, DE LA DIMENSION ET DE LA COMPOSITION DE FLUIDE D'UNE ACCUMULATION D'HYDROCARBURES DE SOUS-SOL

摘要

A method for detecting hydrocarbons is described. The method includes performing a remote sensing survey of a survey location to identify a target location. Then, an underwater vehicle (UV) is deployed into a body of water and directed to the target location. The UV collects measurement data within the body of water at the target location, which is then analyzed to determine whether hydrocarbons are present at the target location.
