Started shooting line 4 (the last one). Apart from a worn-out air pigtail cable, the equipment performs ok. Data quality seems fine.

Dr. Haflidi Haflidason, Department of Geology at the University of Bergen, participates in the "Continental Slope Stability" (COSTA) and Stratagem programs. These programs - all members of a group denoted "Ocean Margin Deep-water Research Consortium" (OMARC) - receive funding from the European Union "Fifth Framework Programme". OMARC aims to study the geology and ecology of continental margins and deep water regions.

The COSTA and Stratagem programs include marine seismic surveying. Dr. Haflidason is responsible for the Norwegian Sea survey scheduled for June 2002. These web pages provide information on instrumentation related issues. Institute of Solid Earth Physics contributes planning and logistics support.
