ANSWERS

  1. Seismic surveys are then used to detect whether the rocks are likely to contain oil and gas deposits and how large these deposits are likely to be.   Explorers generate seismic (sound) waves and measure the time taken for the waves to travel from the source, reflect off subsurface features and be detected by receivers at the surface.
