Abstract
Taiwan has a high population density and complex mountainous terrain. Magnetotelluric (MT) Array hardware system and data processing software were developed in order to improve the signal to noise ratio for the Magnetotelluric survey and to work in the rough terrain area. The effective apparent resistivity with respect to frequency from several MT Array surveys was compared with the data previously drilled by Chinese Petroleum Corp. and Industrial Technology Research Institute. The results from the MT Array could explain why those wells are not successful.
