Abstract: A coating (100) for a marine seismic streamer with several streamer sections (110, 130) connected by connectors (120), wherein the coating (100) is a sheet comprising a substrate (101) for containing an antifouling agent. The coating (100) is cut into a strip, e.g. a tape (104) with an adhesive layer, which may be wrapped around a streamer connector (120), where barnacles and other marine organisms thrive.

Abstract: A positioning system (100) for marine seismic surveying, comprising a towing vessel (110), a source array (120) and a receiver array (130) with several streamers (131). Each streamer (131) comprises at least three birds (134) and positioning sensors (134-137) wherein several seismic receivers (132) are placed between each pair of birds (134). The system (100) comprises a dynamic model wherein each streamer (131) is represented by a fitted B-spline curve and each bird (134) is associated with a constant velocity and a constant acceleration; and a Kalman filter using the dynamic model and observations from the positioning sensors (134-137) to provide a geodetic position of each seismic receiver (132) with better accuracy than the dynamic model alone and observations alone within a time interval Δt equal to or less than a minimum time between shots determined by the source array (120).

Abstract: A method for conducting a seismic survey for collecting seismic data off shore. It comprises a first seismic survey providing a first set of data for an area using individual seismic sub-source arrays (2). It further comprises a second seismic survey of the same area for providing a second set of data. The individual seismic sub-source arrays (2) are similar to the sub-source arrays used during the former survey and are arranged in more than two shot-unit sources (3). Each shot-unit source (3) comprises a pair of neighboring individual seismic sub-source arrays (2) arranged to be fired substantially at the same time.

Abstract: A method for conducting a seismic survey for collecting seismic data, the method may include towing strings of seismic sources coupled to a vessel, towing a plurality of lead-in cables coupled to the vessel and towing a plurality of streamers attached to the lead-in cables in a spreader cable at towing points. The method further includes towing a plurality of source cables such that the seismic source arrays are positioned with a wide spread of at least 125 meters that may distribute the near offset seismic data more evenly and creates a dataset of near offsets for imaging correctly.

Abstract: The invention concerns a system (100) for detecting pollution (2) on or at a sea surface (3), wherein the system (100) is adapted for mounting on a marine vessel (1). The system comprises a detector (110) with a LIDAR for providing digital pollution data (112) relating to pollution (2) in a region (40) along a path (4) travelled by the marine vessel (1); a positioning system (120) for providing positioning data; a clock (131) for providing a digital timestamp; and a computer (130) for collecting, combining and storing digital data (141). The computer (130) is configured to execute a secure hashing algorithm (133) on pollution data (112) with associated positioning data and a timestamp to produce a digest, execute an encryption function (134) on the digest using a private key (sk) and to store the data (141) and encrypted digest (142) in a database (140).

Abstract: A cable fairing (fairing) (40) for reducing the flow resistance for a cable (45) has a wing formed cross section with a wide, rounded front and a tapered tail, a through-going cable channel (46) for the cable (45) perpendicular to the cross section of the widest part of the cross section. The wing profile comprises an elastic material of sufficient stiffness to maintain the shape when it is towed thereby causing flow resistance. The cable fairing (40) has slots (42) cut into the elastic material from the tail towards the cable channel (46), so that the tail comprises slats (41) which can be bent parallel to the cable channel (46) to reduce the cross-section of the cable fairing. By this is low flow resistance, as from a stiff cable jacket, combined with sufficient elastic deformability so the cable (45) with attached cable fairings (40), can be winched and pass through narrow openings in the deployment and retrieval, and wound onto a reel for storage and transport.
