Vector Fidelity Analyses of Seabed Seismic Data

E-03 VECTOR FIDELITY ANALYSES OF SEABED SEISMIC DATA GEIR WOJE EIVIND BERG JON IVAR RYKKELID ØYSTEIN SVENDSEN Abstract 1 The vector fidelity analyses are performed on the first break of three different data sets. RMS mapping modelling polarization analyses and frequency analyses all prove to differentiate the sensors with respect to vector fidelity. One cable sensor and three planted sensors (nodes) are evaluated. There are significant differences between the cable sensor and the planted nodes. The results suggest that cable sensors are not qualified for wide azimuth acquisitions. Introduction During the last years vector fidelity has become a major subject
