    2D survey is good for initial investigations and selection of drilling sites.
    3D is better.
    4D is better still, if some variable changes over time - eg. oil extraction and/or CO2 injection (CCS - Carbon capture & storage, not the great Alexis Korner rock group).

    3D/4D: Real pictures of 'real money' - my son does this - real proud!

    But, if they find oil won't they be drilling in the “Argentine Sea?”
