ABSTRACT:
A seismic prospecting method comprising the use of at least two vehicles for moving an acoustic wave emission assembly and a reception assembly such as a seismic streamer. The method consists in performing successive cycles of emission of acoustic waves, of reception and of recording of the acoustic waves coming from reflecting interfaces of the subsoil and combining the recording so as to provide multiple coverage. The vehicles follow paths such that the angle formed by the respective advancing directions remains greater than or equal to 90.degree. in absolute value.
