SEISMIC ARRAY WITH SPACED SOURCES HAVING VARIABLE PRESSURE

摘要

An over/under seismic source system includes a first umbilical to a first gun array at a first depth and a second umbilical at a different air pressure to a second gun array at a second, lower depth. The air pressure to the second, lower gun array is tuned so that the periods of the gun bubbles from the higher and lower gun arrays match in order to improve wavefield separation in subsequent data processing.
