ABSTRACT:
A source array useful in vertical seismic profiling is disclosed wherein a first set of source elements having horizontal extent is spaced to have at least a first direction and a second direction, and a second set of source elements having vertical extent are spaced below the first set of source elements. The source elements in the source array are sequentially activated to focus the seismic energy along selected radial paths through the earth's subsurface.
