Approaches that are typically applied in deep exploration geophysics, combining different seismic and logging methods, can be technically adapted for certain geotechnical or hydrogeological surveys or some site characterizations in the framework of seismic hazard studies. Currently it is entirely feasible to implement this type of geophysical surveying if the situation requires.
After reviewing the current state of knowledge regarding borehole measurements of subsurface shear velocities applied to the geotechnical field, this book illustrates the feasibility of carrying out vertical seismic profiles (VSPs) and logs in this field.
This approach also illustrates the value of combining velocity measurements of formations provided by borehole seismic tools (VSP) and acoustic (sonic) tools.
An innovative example of the application of borehole seismic and logging methods is then presented in the case study of a relatively near-surface (from 20 to 130 m) karst carbonate aquifer. It shows how a multi-scale description of the reservoir can be carried out by integrating the information provided by different 3D-THR surface seismic methods, full waveform acoustic logging, VSP with hydrophones, borehole optical televiewer and flow measurements.
In this book the authors provide readers with guidelines to carry out these operations, in terms of acquisitions as well as processing and interpretation. Thus, users will be able to draw inspiration to continue transferring petroleum techniques and other innovative methods for use in near-surface studies.

1Foreword
J.-L. Mari, C. Vergniault
Based on their experience in geophysics applied to the oil and gas industry and the
geotechnical field, the authors have set out to explain how conventional approaches
used in deep exploration geophysics can be applied to certain geotechnical and
hydrogeological surveys, and site characterizations in the framework of seismic
hazard studies. After reviewing the current state of knowledge in the
geotechnical field regarding borehole measurements of subsurface shear velocities, the book
aims to illustrate the feasibility of carrying out vertical seismic profiles, logs and 3D
seismic reflection blocks. In addition to these examples, the authors have sought to
provide readers with guidelines to carry out these operations, in terms of
acquisition, as well as processing and interpretation.
The authors thank Françoise Coppens, Patrick Meynier and Gilles Porel for their
contributions to this book.

The authors
A graduate of the Institut Physique du Globe Strasbourg and IFP School (petroleum
geosciences, major in geophysics in 1978), Jean-Luc Mari was employed by IFP
Energies Nouvelles in 1979 as a research engineer in the Geophysics Department,
where he worked on several research projects, such as high-resolution seismic
surveying, reservoir monitoring, and the development of borehole tools, in
collaboration with industrial partners GdF-Suez, CGG, Total and ELF Aquitaine. In 1986,
he was seconded to ELF Aquitaine where he worked on reservoir geophysics. He
joined IFPEN in 1987 and was seconded to the Reservoir Department, where he
studied, in particular, the benefits of using geophysical methods in horizontal wells.
In 1994 he was appointed to IFP School as a professor and obtained the
accreditation to supervise research in earth sciences at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie.
Currently geophysics professor at IFP School, and an expert in geophysics for IFP
Energies Nouvelles, Jean-Luc Mari is a member of the EAGE. He is associate editor
for Near Surface Geophysics. In 2010, he received a Knighthood from the Ordre des
Palmes Académiques.
After gaining experience in various roles involving physical measurements,
Christophe Vergniault has worked as a geophysicist in the Geosciences Department
at EDF’s Industrial Division (EDF-DIPNN-DI-TEGG) for eight years. Trained as
a geophysics ingénieur (EOST) and with a geology degree from Montpellier
(master in advanced studies in structure and evolution of the lithosphere), he worked as
a geophysicist in a company specializing in offshore surveying (Géodia), as a
petrophysicist and wellsite geologist at Gaz De France (Exploration & Production and
underground storage department), and as physical measurement analyst for
inspecting EDF hydropower. The result of this accumulation of experiences is reflected in
this book through his outlook on geophysical measurements applied to the
geotechnical field.

2Introduction
J.-L. Mari, C. Vergniault
In the geophysics of oil exploration and reservoir studies, the seismic method is the
most commonly used method to obtain a subsurface model. This method plays an
increasingly important role in soil investigations for geotechnical, hydrogeological
and site characterization studies regarding seismic hazard issues (Mari et al, 1999).
The surface seismic method involves:
• Seismic refraction (P or S waves), which provides a subsurface velocity model.
This method, applied to P waves, is commonly used in the geotechnology field
to identify changes in the position of the bedrock, as well as longitudinal changes
of its physical state or that of its overburden (see AGAP’s Guide Sismique
réfraction, O. Magnin, Y. Bertrand, 2005).
• Seismic reflection, a type of two or three-dime
