The present book is the author's third on the subject of vertical
seismic profiling (VSP). Ten years have elapsed since the
pUblication of the fIrst book. During this period, VSP has become
the principal method of seismic observations in boreholes and the
chief method of experimental studies of seismic waves in the real
earth. VSP combines borehole studies in the seismic frequency band,
well velocity surveys, proximity or aplanatic surveys, all of which
previously existed as separate methods. The high effectiveness
ofVSP, its great practical value, the express nature and clarity of
the results obtained have all contributed towards a very rapid
acceptance of the method. In the USSR VSP has been used in an
overwhelming majority of areas and is being used increasingly in
many foreign countries as well. This has been greatly facilitated
by the translation into English and the publication in the U. S. A.
by the Society of Exploration Geophysicists of the book Vertical
Seismic Profiling (Tulsa, Oklahoma, 1974). As the method has become
more familiar, it has attracted growing interest outside the USSR
This has been substantiated by the special seminar on VSP
(Oklahoma, 1979) which was organized for 22 U. S. companies and
universities and presented by the author.
