How the changing Exploration business calls for different, unconventional technologies. Various significant improvements in sensor technologies as well as in computational methods, large-scale space borne and airborne scanning technologies have started to play a more prominent role in Frontier Exploration. Also novel Electromagnetic methods both on-shore as well as offshore start to bring new geological insights not easily obtained from just seismic technologies. In this talk we will show using various examples how these technologies may be used in conjunction with novel seismic methods to assess faster and more reliably Frontier Exploration opportunities.
