Starjet - A New Implosive Source

A seismic recording is always affected by the spatial and temporal specifications of the source. In order to obtain the highest possible resolution at all depths, Starjet was designed to create a sharp impulse, short and clean, which remains identical in all directions and can be measured with great accuracy. Starjet is based upon the implosion of several different sized steam bubbles through a system of compact subarrays set perpendicular to the profile. The recording of signatures produced by each subarray can be made at each shot.
