ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for conducting seismic surveys from a single wellbore utilizing an array of seismic detectors and an seismic source suspended downhole from the detectors on a coiled tubing. Actuation of the airgun both generates a seismic signal penetrating the adjacent lateral geological formations and a plurality of air bubbles pass up the borehole to attenuate tube wave propagation in the borehole fluid.
