Comprises details of the operations, field acquisition, results and interpretation of the seismic survey. A total of 58 miles of 6-fold reflection data was recorded using the Geograph (Thumper) weight dropping method of surface injection. The survey experimented with the application of this method on the various surface terrains present, with the aim of obtaining stratigraphic and structural information. Results were poor and no correlation has been possible across the whole of the area. There is a possility of a small closure on a well defined E-W high located to the north of a major synclinal axis.
