ICDP/KTB - Photo-Impressions


Photo 1: Drillrigg of the KTB (view from the
west). The boom of the grey crane slightly right
of the rigg marks the position of the pilot hole.
You might want to take a look at the site map
Photo 2: Surface reference geophones on the KTB site






Photo 3: An older photo of the newly developed
HT/HP geophone used in the main hole



Photo 4: The reference geophone used in the pilot hole.
The open box in the background is part of the radio
repeater station used for communication between
the aquisition system and the vibro trucks


Photo 5: Drill of Thueringer Sprenggesellschaft
on the VSP zero offset shot site in April 1999.
A shotpoint plan gives an idea of the
distribution of holes within the shot field
Photo 6: Drill on the VSP 8 km offset shot site in April 1999. A shotpoint plan
gives an idea of the distribution of holes within the shot field





Photo 7: VSP zero offset shot field in use Photo 8: Shot on the 8 km offset shot field


Photo 9: Reference geophone on the
8 km offset shot field (try to find it)
Photo 10: Data aquisition of the reference geophone on the 8 km offset shot field



Photo 11: VSP data aquisition on the KTB site in
April 1999 with a GEOMETRICS Stataview (in
the background) by GGA, Hannover and an
OYO DAS-1 by Geophysik-GGD, Leipzig
Photo 12: Cable winch of the main borehole



Photo 13: HT/HP geophone electronics





Photo 14: Killed high temperature motors of the HT/HP
geophone sonde's clamping mechanism
Photo 15: Impressive pressure demonstration
