Abstract
Method for acquiring zero offset data from a marine seismic survey. Seismic data are recorded using source signature monitor receivers located very near the air guns or other sources (). The recorded data are sorted into common-source gathers (). A common trace is computed that is common to each gather (). The common trace is subtracted from each trace in each gather (), resulting in approximately zero-offset data.
