During seismic tests, Observers work in a recording truck and use two-way radios to direct the work of crew members involved in the tests. In some cases, Observers activate the explosives used in tests or direct the work of shooters who activate explosives from a different location. In general, Seismic Observers:
• Ensure that all of the crew’s daily activities are planned and executed properly.
• Oversee the entire data collection effort to ensure highest possible data quality.
• Configure the Recording Instrumentation System for each project’s requirements.
• Perform daily and monthly instrument tests, and ensure all equipment meets tolerance specifications.
• Troubleshoot problems and repair recording equipment.
• Document recording operations.
• Have the line crew be as efficient as possible, overseeing the production of up to 70 workers including Line Crew Helpers, Trouble Shooters, Shooters and Coordinators.
• Properly coordinate helicopter usage.
• Ensure that safety guidelines and procedures are followed.
• Coordinate action taken for any serious incidents, to ensure safety of injured employee(s).
• A valid driver’s license is an asset and may be required by some companies in order to obtain employment. Potential candidates should also be aware that a driver’s abstract may be required.
