BUSCADOR RECOLECTA

The study area covers an area of 36 km2 and included approximately 5000 mixed (Vibroseis and explosives) source points recorded with a 25 m inline source and receiver spacing., The Basque–Cantabrian Basin of the northern Iberia Peninsula constitutes a unique example of a major deformation system, featuring a dome structure developed by extensional tectonics followed by compressional reactivation. The occurrence of natural resources in the area and the possibility of establishing a geological storage site for carbon dioxide motivated the acquisition of a 3-D seismic reflection survey in 2010, centered on the Jurassic Hontomín dome. The objectives of this survey were to obtain a geological model of the overall structure and to establish a baseline model for a possible geological CO2 storage site., Spanish Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade through the CIUDEN and ICTJA agreement.--European Union through the Technology Demonstration Plant of Compostilla.--Spanish Ministry of Education Science.--Generalitat de Catalunya.--, Peer reviewed
