 Stanford Exploration Project

The Stanford Exploration Project (SEP) is a research initiative associated with Stanford University that focuses on the field of geophysical exploration, particularly in the areas of seismic data analysis and interpretation. Founded in the late 1970s, SEP aims to develop and apply innovative methods for the exploration of subsurface resources, including oil, gas, and minerals. The project involves collaborations between students, researchers, and industry professionals, fostering a multidisciplinary approach that draws from mathematics, computer science, geology, and engineering.
