Abstract

Techniques are disclosed relating to geophysical surveying and data processing using streamers at different depths. In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining geophysical data specific to a geophysical formation that includes a first set of data representative of a first particle motion signal and a first pressure signal recorded using sensors at a first depth and a second set of data representative of a second particle motion signal and a second pressure signal recorded using sensors at a second, greater depth. In this embodiment, the method includes generating first and second wave separation equations from the first and second sets of data and determining a cross-line wavenumber value that reconciles the first and second equations. The determined cross-line wavenumber may be used to separate measured up-going and down-going wavefields.
