A bstract From data published in various journals, as for instance “Geophysics”, a lot of information can be gathered on the geophysical activity in the world. In this article the evolution of this activity is discussed, as far as it concerns the search for hydrocarbons. An interesting part of such a study consists of a comparison of the geophysical activity with the activity in drilling and the extent of the discovered reserves. In the USA in particular the amount of data available is sufficient to make a detailed analysis possible.
