English abstract | IsoMetrix is a new type of marine towed-streamer seismic measurement that mitigates for the limited crossline sampling of the towed marine seismic method. Using this new multi-measurement system it is possible to accurately reconstruct the upgoing wavefield between streamers. The integrated acquisition and processing system delivers deghosted reconstructed data, in near realtime, on the vessel as a standard deliverable. Recent testing and production surveys demonstrate the value of the multimeasurements to measure the 3D wavefield at much higher resolution than with existing technology. As the industry gains experience with this technology any limitations of the reconstruction will become clearer but early results are already showing significant value |
