Abstract

See full text

In a process for obtaining seismic data relating to an exploratory well, a seismic wave transmitter and a seismic wave receiver are provided, one arranged on the surface adjacent the well and the other at a plurality of measurement points down the well, and the output of the receiver is processed in a processing installation. The measurement points are divided into at least two groups, each of which comprises a plurality of measurement points spaced apart in a distance (D.sub.z) which is less than a predetermined limit distance so as to avoid aliasing, and the groups of measurement points are separated from each other by a distance (D) greater than the limit distance. In the processing installation separation of the down-going waves from the up-going waves belonging to the same group is carried out before coherence filtration of the separated waves.
