  • Method and device for measuring source signature
    Patent number: 9470812
    Abstract: Source signature of a source array is measured using an autonomous underwater vehicle which is not physically connected to surface equipment and uses acoustic signals for communication and/or location. Such measurements may be performed while the source array is towed, the AUV then moving in tandem with the source array.
    Type: Grant

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING THE FAR FIELD SIGNATURE OF A SOURCE IN WIDE AZIMUTH SURVEYS
    Publication number: 20150085603
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining the far field signature of a source in wide azimuth surveys are disclosed. The method includes determining a position of a first sensor and a source. The first sensor is attached to a first vessel and the source is attached to a second vessel. The method further includes calculating a reflected incidence angle between the first sensor and the source, determining a position for a second sensor based on a direct incidence angle between the second sensor and the source approximating the direct incidence angle. The method also includes determining a far field signature for the source based on the direct incidence angle.

  • FAR-FIELD DETECTION DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20140241119
    Abstract: A far-field detection apparatus for measuring a far-field signature of a seismic source includes a main tow cable, a depth control device, sensor lines, at least two deflectors and seismic sensors. The depth control device is attached to the main tow cable. Each of the sensor lines has a first end attached to the main tow cable. Each of the deflectors is attached to a second end of the sensor lines, respectively. The deflectors are configured to generate forces pulling the sensor lines away from the main tow cable. The seismic sensors are attached between the first end and the second end of each of the sensor lines. The seismic sensors are configured to measure seismic waves generated by the seismic source.
