Abstract:
A first stationary seismic receiver array is provided in a first non-vertically directed first borehole section of a first array of non-vertically directed first borehole sections, and a second stationary seismic receiver array is provided in a second non-vertically directed first borehole section of the first array of non-vertically directed first borehole sections. A seismic source assembly is moved axially through a first non-vertically directed second borehole section from at least a first position to a second position of a plurality of first borehole positions along a length of the first non-vertically directed second borehole section. The seismic source assembly contains a repeatable seismic source, which is activated when the seismic source assembly is in the first position and when the seismic source assembly is in the second position. First and second shots of seismic signals are recorded with at least each of the first and second stationary seismic receivers.
