Abstract

3D seismic surveys are proven cost-effective tools for hydrocarbon exploration and production. This technology can be transferred and adapted to an emerging problem for social life, i.e. the supply of fresh water and its protection from pollution. We carried out a 3D survey in a catchment area close to industrial plants, where new infrastructures could be built. The inversion of P and Rayleigh waves allowed estimating the weathering heterogeneity, with possibly related variations of permeability.
