Once shoot ing is com plet e for a specified line segm ent , you can pick up t he equipm ent and m ove it t o a new locat ion while shoot ing cont inues on a different line segm ent . You should follow best pract ices as recom m ended by your com pany or t he indust ry; however, t he following should be considered when planning your roll procedures: Pickup and layout crews pick up lines behind product ion and lay t hem out ahead of product ion. Depending on bat t ery charge st at e, equipm ent m ay circulat e t hrough st aging or go direct ly from one line t o t he next . I n order t o m ake m ost efficient use of layout crews, it is com m on t o lay out ent ire receiver lines at a t im e even if t hey are longer t han t he t em plat e. This way crews don’t need t o spend t im e walking or driving from one line t o t he next picking up or laying out sm all am ount s of equipm ent . However, if t he size of t he survey is large and receivers per line m ult iplied by t he num ber of lines is larger t han t he num ber of channels available, it m ay be necessary t o roll in t he inline direct ion. I n t his case, it is necessary t o be able t o pick up and lay out WRUs in quant it ies sm aller t han a rib; for exam ple increm ent s of six WRUs. During inline roll operat ions, it m ay be desirable t o add newly deployed WRUs t o an exist ing ( discovered) rib. The Observer can inst ruct t he last WRU in a rib t o poll for neighbors during recording. Newly added WRUs can begin recording im m ediat ely.
