From July 15, 1978 until September 27, 1978, Western Geophysical Co. acquired 1,350 miles of multi-channel seismic reflection data from the Beaufort Sea area. Western Geophysical Co. used two vessels in this survey, the M/V Western Beaufort, and the M/V Arctic Sun. These data were collected under permit 78-07 issued by the Minerals Management Service (MMS). The MMS acquired 1,239 miles of this data set on September 4, 1979, under Contract 14-08-0001-18303. Under the conditions of the contract and subsequent regulations, the data are now available to the public.
