MAGNETIC FIELD MEASUREMENT VIA STREAMER CABLES

摘要

A method of generating a magnetic anomaly map and a system to develop a magnetic anomaly map are described. The method includes obtaining magnetic compass data recorded by two or more magnetic compasses disposed along a seismic streamer that traverses a first area and obtaining measurements from one or more navigation systems over the first area. The method also includes determining a correct position of each of the two or more magnetic compasses based on the measurements from the one or more navigation systems, and comparing the magnetic compass data with theoretical magnetic field data at the correct positions to generate a magnetic anomaly map.
