A method may include providing a sensor in a first wellbore segment, providing a sensor in a second wellbore segment, observing upgoing acoustic waves or downgoing acoustic waves with the sensors, and separating the upgoing acoustic waves and/or the downgoing acoustic waves from a total wavefield. The first wellbore segment and the second wellbore segment may be separated by a distance. At least one of the wellbore segments may be non-vertical and/or the first wellbore segment may not be parallel to the second wellbore segment. The first wellbore segment may be part of a first set of wellbores and the second wellbore segment may be part of a second set of wellbores. The separated upgoing and downgoing acoustic waves may be used to generate deghosted data.
