In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend and geophysicist Mark Aisenberg to talk about everything from oilfield processing workflows to a potential breakthrough in near-surface seismic imaging. Mark has worked for some of the biggest names in the business—Chesapeake, AEP, White Star—and now spends his time drilling his own vertical prospects and thinking way outside the box.

We go deep on the foundation of geophysics, how seismic actually works, and the wild idea that high-resolution surface data—normally thrown away—might contain the key to mapping the shallow subsurface like never before.

It’s a mix of oilfield shop talk, startup dreams, and dinosaur-hunting enthusiasm. This one’s a thinker.
