This paper presents a historical record of the geophysical activity in the area of the La Gloria Field. The successive stages of geophysical exploration were: Torsion balance survey 1934–1935; correlation reflection seismograph survey 1936; dip reflection seismograph survey, 1938; correlation reflection seismograph survey, 1938; gravity meter survey, 1943–1944. The discovery well, Magnolia’s Sam Maun No. 1, was drilled and completed in 1938–1939, producing initially 165 barrels per day of 65° gravity distillate and 5,646,000 cubic feet of gas through a 5/16 inch choke. Oil and gas in the La Gloria Field are being produced from sands in the Frio formation of Oligocene age. There are a number of sands producing gas‐distillate. Several flank wells produce oil. The field has been unitized and a cycling plant is engaged in processing the gas‐distillate.

Geophysical Exploration

The achievement of practical and useful airborne gravity exploration for petroleum is a major culmination of more than twenty years of research and development. Commercial surveys have now been conducted for three years. The precision and anomaly resolution attainable are twice as good as that of current shipborne gravity data. This paper presents data to demonstrate the precision of airborne gravity and discusses its usefulness (with simultaneous magnetics and topography). Industrial acceptance of the method portends a new era in geophysical exploration for oil and gas which gives promise to double the effectiveness of explorations on land in both time and cost.

Survey Results

Geophysical prospecting technology is widely used in current geological exploration, metal exploration, oil and gas resources exploration, etc. This technology has many advantages such as low cost, high efficiency and good accuracy of survey results, and plays an important role in many industries. At present, the level of geophysical prospecting technology in China is constantly improving, and its application effect is also constantly improving, so it is necessary to clarify the key application points of this technology. Therefore, this paper will conduct in-depth research and Analysis on the important applications of geophysical exploration technology, elaborate the basic concepts and specific applications of geophysical exploration technology, and put forward some reasonable opinions and measures, in order to further improve the application level of this technology.
