Embodiment Construction
[0041]FIG. 1 depicts a schematic of a basic marine system including a vessel 10 towing a streamer 12. The streamer has a number of pieces of auxiliary equipment, such as depth control devices, associated with it that are not shown in order to simplify FIG. 1.
[0042]The streamer 12 also includes a number of hydrophone carriers 14 spaced apart along the streamer. As used herein, the term “hydrophone” refers to the active elements which are sensitive to the seismic signals (acoustic pressure) and the supporting body (or structure) which retains the active elements is referred to as a “hydrophone carrier”. Active elements typically comprise piezoelectric elements, but may also include optical elements, micro-machined electro-mechanical sensor elements, and the like. In the present invention, the hydrophone carrier is adapted to retain not only the hydrophones but also a pair of orthogonally oriented geophones and a tilt sensor.
[0043]The hydrophone carriers 14 and a buoyant material are s...
