Seismic data acquisition in shallow water: A case history In The Venice Lagoon

Seismic Data Acquisition In Shallow Water: A Case History in The Venice Lagoon Luca Baradello (Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica Sperimentale – OGS) and Federica Donda (Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica Sperimentale – OGS) SUMMARY____________________________________________________________ This work shows how is possible to collect High Resolution Seismic data in very shallow water with a boomer and a mono-channel streamer. Using mono-channel is necessary for improving Signal/Noise but in shallow water the aliasing ruins the signal. We tested a special acquisition geometry in which the streamer and the plate are towed on opposite sides (only lateral offset) behind the stern. In this case the
