Definitions
- the seismic cable 2 comprises two parallel cables, a lower geophone cable 4 and an upper hydrophone cable 5.
- the geophone cable 4 is towed along the bed 3 with which it is to have optimum contact, whilst the hydrophone cable 5 floats at a predetermined distance above the geophone cable 4.
- Cable spheres 6 containing geophones are placed along the geophone cable 4 at constant intervals. The cable spheres 6 will be relatively heavy and make good contact with the bed.
- Upper sphere part is a kind of cover for middle cable sphere's cavity.
- upper sphere part 33 comprises two transversal walls 47 which close at each end of upper sphere part's cavity.
