Potash Mine Development and Void Space Mapping
You need detailed subsurface information to assist in the long-term planning for potash mine development.
Mine planners need to understand the subsurface when making long-term development plans. Boyd PetroSearch’s professional team of geophysicists has been providing these answers to potash companies for more than 20 years. We will plan and execute seismic programs to provide our geophysical team the data they need to fully understand the mining conditions BEFORE the mining begins.
An inflow has introduced fluid into the mine. What now?
The analysis of high quality seismic data may shed light on the source and path of a brine inflow into a potash mine. The geophysicists at Boyd PetroSearch work within multi-disciplinary scientific research teams to quickly provide grouting targets. Time-lapse acquisition and analyses provides periodic measurements of changes in the subsurface situation.
Underground storage caverns don’t always perform the way they are supposed to.
Sometimes, underground storage caverns erode, collapse and evolve into shapes that weren't anticipated in their design phase. Boyd PetroSearch provides high-resolution seismic interpretations of underground gas and chemical storage facilities to assist in the understanding of their performance characteristics.
