Summary

Metadata (Metadata Plugin)
0Summary
Airguns are used primarily to generate signals in marine seismics. Depending on the target to be resolved those airguns are towed behind the vessel either as one airgun or several in a cluster or tuned array. Umbilical cords supply the airguns with pressurised air, which is released by a trigger pulse in specific intervals. This then generates the seismic wave.

Airguns have different chamber sizes, which are chosen in relation to the objectives, i.e. target size and depth. The Reflection Seismic Airguns Cluster consits of usually 4 GI-guns with a volume of 2.4 l each, cluster bars as distance pieces and mounting gear.
