Enhanced Seismic Resolution from Dual Sensor Towed Streamer Acquisition

The benefits from dual sensor towed streamer acquisition comes from collocated pressure and particle velocity sensors. The combination of the sensors allows the separation of the up- and down-going wavefields, and thus the removal of the ghost reflection. The removal of the ghost significantly enhances frequency content and resolution. The presentation will review the key principles of towed dual sensor streamer acquisition and present case studies which highlight the uplift provided by the increase bandwidth.
