<p>Method and marine acoustic source array (110) for generating an acoustic wave in a body of water. The marine acoustic source array includes first and second external source sub-arrays (114a, 114c), each sub-array including one or more individual source elements; a first actuator device (200a) connected to the first external source sub-array (114a); and a second actuator device (200c) connected to the second external source sub-array (114c). The first actuator device (200a) has a corresponding cable (220a) configured to connect to a first lead-in (122a), and the second actuator device (200c) has a corresponding cable (220c) configured to connect to a second lead-in (122b) such that a position of the source array as a whole is controllable along a line substantially perpendicular to a path of the source array.</p> |
