GeoPulse boomer system


This is a seismic system of upper middle and middle resolution of penetration, which emits an acoustic high power pulse of short duration (0.1 ms), by means of a boomer of advanced design. The acoustic signals are received by a group of hydrophones (“streamer”) that is towed in parallel with the emitter (Fig. 8), and once adequately amplified and filtered, they are registered to obtain a profile of the marine bottom, that shows penetrations of between 75 and 100 m and a high resolution (0.5 m).
