Abstract: Embodiments relate generally to marine geophysical surveying. More particularly, embodiments relate to a wax application system for application of a wax coating to a surface of a streamer. An embodiment may comprise a marine geophysical survey system. The marine geophysical survey system may comprise a streamer and a wax application system operable to receive the streamer on deployment and apply a wax coating to the streamer as the streamer is being deployed from a survey vessel into a body of water.

Abstract: Embodiments generally relates to marine geophysical surveying. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to treatment of geophysical equipment with medetomidine compounds for reduction of marine growth. A method may comprise combining at least a medetomidine compound and a wax to form a mixture; and forming an outer layer disposed on a marine geophysical equipment, wherein the outer layer comprises the mixture of the medetomidine compound and the wax.
