Seismic Data from Ultra-Deep Underwater Environments
By Sercel Underwater AcousticsConducting underwater seismic surveys can be an extremely challenging task, requiring the deployment of specialised equipment such as ocean-bottom seismometers in hostile environments, often several thousand meters beneath sea-level.
Such equipment has to be able to operate with reliability and longevity, providing highly accurate seismic data, which is used by scientists and engineers to gain new insight into the condition of underwater sedimentary and crust layers.
