Abstract: Traditional 3D seismic cannot be effectively carried out in these areas such as bare carbonate, thick loess and piedmont areas. In order to ascertain the development of coal measure strata and structures in such areas, the 3D Reverse Vertical Seismic Profile technology was studied, which has broken through the current difficulties in data collection and processing of RVSP technology. The 3D RVSP technology was successfully applied in a mine and data collection of 8 holes and 438 physical points were completed. The pass rate was 100%. After processing the data such as static correction and equivalent surface seismic data processing, the interpretation work was carried out. 38 coal seam faults were controlled and the depth and undulation of the main coal seams 3#, 5-3#, 6-3#, 8# were well controlled. The application effect is better.
