Abstract
An electrode. The electrode includes a compressible form having an outer surface. A plurality of electrically conducting wire strands is disposed in a wire layer on the outer surface. The wire layer substantially covers the outer surface of the compressible form, and each wire strand comprises a first end and a second end configured to couple to a source of electromagnetic energy.
Claims18
A source cable for an electromagnetic survey, the source cable comprising:
- a tow cable having a diameter;
- an electrode coupled to the tow cable, the electrode comprising:
- a compressible form having an outer surface and a diameter, the diameter of the compressible form greater than the diameter of the tow cable;
- a plurality of electrically conducting wire strands disposed in a wire layer on the outer surface, wherein the wire layer substantially covers the outer surface of the compressible form;
- and
- each wire strand of the plurality of electrically conducting wire strands comprises at least one end configured to couple to a source of electromagnetic energy.
