Abstract

Summary

In the summer of 2013 a field test was conducted in the Gulf of Mexico to acquire seismic data during an ocean bottom node (OBN) survey using unmanned water vehicles, or wave gliders, towing a miniature streamer. The wave gliders use wave energy to move in the water and could be programmed to follow a certain path or to hold station. We present the results of this test and compare the seismic data acquired with the wave gliders and OBN.
