Receiver streamer system and method for marine electromagnetic surveying

摘要

A receiver streamer system for marine electromagnetic surveying includes a first streamer, and a second streamer disposed substantially parallel to and spaced apart from the first streamer. A first pair of electrodes is associated with the first streamer and a second pair of electrodes is associated with the second streamer. Each of the first and second pairs of electrodes is functionally associated with a voltage measuring circuit configured to measure voltage along an inline direction. At least one electrode on each of the first and second streamers is configured and associated with a voltage measuring circuit to make voltage measurements in a cross-line direction.
