Training Courses
UBC offers training courses on different levels of details and qualification, from Bachelor level students through master and PhD level students, but also for professionals, who are interested to get in touch with the world of shallow water investigations focusing for example on windfarm development.
While multichannel seismic work has been established since the 1980's for hydrocarbon exploration, it is not just downscaling acquisition and processing, but rather dedicated approaches are needed to optimize results. Also, sediment echosounder work in shallow water requires special knowledge on data interpretation to get the most for cable routing, lithologic interpretation and soil characterization of several meters down to several 10's of meters.
We can offer training courses on approaches and strategies, on technical details of various equipment to optimize surveying success and on various geologic environments, features and depositional systems.
