Abstract

By this method for vertical seismic profiling in the well-bore there are introduced at least two separate recording-instruments such as 3-component geophones and in addition to these also acoustic signal sources. The signal sources are arranged either over or below or possibly also in between the recording-instruments. The source is run to emit signals with spectra between 0 and 1000 Hz and the generated waves are registered as a function of time. A procedure for using this arrangement is also described.
