The standard seaCHIRP™ (renamed 2D)
Successfully completed 1000’s of surveyed line kilometers.
The end product is a 2D seismic section of specular reflections arising from a broadband vertical wavefield.
It is ideally suited for surveys where detailed interpretation of the underlying stratigraphy is the survey objective. Also the tool of choice when quick data turn-around is critical.
Beam characteristics :
- Foot print (m) ≈ 0.26 * water depth
- Aperture ≈ 15°
Super Wideband Chirp Technology
Frequency bandwidth: 4.5 octaves
- Deep penetration with high resolution
- Analysis of difficult seabeds (coarse or consolidated sediments)
- Detection of small buried objects (e.g. 6’’ pipes)
- Customizable signal to optimize results according to client requirements / survey conditions
Main applications:
- Complex seabed geology (diffraction, attenuation…)
- Fine-scale, detailed sea-floor stratigraphy studies
- Pipe / cable detection
seaWING: streamlined acoustic array
Advanced design hydrophone array
- An innovative design for better transversal directivity (±7.5°)
- Filter side echoes in order to improve measurement interpretation and buried object positioning
Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) processing
- 30 cm longitudinal resolution, even at a depth of several dozen meters
- Clear distinction between objects in close proximity
- Obtain accurate imaging of seabed structures (e.g. landing sites)
- Analysis of difficult seabed lithologies (coarse or consolidated sediments)
