Seismic Duck Prospect for oil and gas using sound waves. You blast sound waves into the ground and record the echos on a seismogram. Interpret the seismogram to choose where to drill.

Levels of play get successively harder. Some levels have ocean drilling. Some have multiple oil reservoirs or tilted layers of rock that make the seismogram trickier. The glass factory restricts where you can blast.

Game has training mode so that you can learn basic seismic wave and oil reservoir mechanics by experimenting. Documentation has a tutorial on oil exploration physics. [source:mobygames]
