Accomplishments

  • B.Sc. Geology Project – Aquifer Characterization Using Vertical Electrical Sounding in Tombia Community, Yenagoa LGA Of Bayelsa State. (2024)

    • Successfully executed a Geophysical Survey of Tombia Town, Bayelsa State, by applying Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) survey method . Processed and modeled Resistivity data to generate 1-D geo-electric models, delineating aquiferous zones and subsurface layer parameters.

  • Geophysical (Seismic) Training – DUSSO Integrated Services. (2022)

    • Completed field training in uphole seismic surveys for refraction analysis, contributing to the characterization of Low Velocity Layers (LVL) in near-surface velocity modeling. Gained applied experience in deploying Geophones for ground vibration detection (analogous to hydrophones in marine surveys) and operating a seismograph to acquire first-arrival seismic data. Assisted in preliminary refraction interpretation to strengthen my understanding of seismic workflows and geophysical survey applications.
