The FTG (Full tensor Gradiometry) system uses the method of measurement of high precision and high resolution, which uses multiple accelerometers in a rotating platform, through which one obtains information of the gradients of the Earth’s gravimetric field.
The regional geophysical study with the use of gravimetry is very important in the location of sedimentary basins, of areas with acquifer prospective as well as in the search for hydrocarbons. This is due to the fact that it is able to cover large areas in little time for the selection of targets, thus accelerating the research system.
