Interpretations
are in very good agreement with the existing drilling and geological
information and reveal a relatively detailed picture of the basin’s geological
background. Further the results allowed us to verify the continuation of known
faults and to obtain new structural information about the studied area. The
results indicate that despite the increased use of 2D electrical surveys, 1-D
VES measurements are still a very useful tool for large-scale applications.
