Electromagnetic streamer cables and methods of use. Example systems include: a first electrode, the first electrode at a first location along the streamer cable; a second electrode at a second location along the streamer cable; a first sensor module electrically coupled to the first electrode and second electrode, the first sensor module configured to measure a voltage across the first and second electrodes; a third electrode at a third location between the first and second electrodes; a fourth electrode at a fourth location along the streamer cable, the fourth location distal to the second location; and a second sensor module electrically coupled to the third electrode and fourth electrode, the second sensor module configured to measure a voltage across the third and fourth electrodes.

Switchable front-end measurement unit for towed marine electromagnetic streamer cables

Determining parameters associated with a hydrocarbon bearing formation beneath a sea bed. At least some of the illustrative embodiments are methods including: obtaining data gathered regarding a plurality of distinct readings by sensors, the readings responsive to a source of electrical energy towed in water above the hydrocarbon bearing formation, the sensors sense an electrical parameter associated with the source; combining a first datum associated with a first path of travel of the source with a second datum associated with a second path of travel of the source, the second path of travel distinct from the first path of travel, and the combining creates a first combined datum; and determining the parameter associated with the hydrocarbon bearing formation by evaluating the first combined datum.
