FLAGSHIP SOLUTIONS FOR THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT Solid Seismic Cable Product Summary Custom Designs and Customizing Array Sections are Available Upon Request All Exposed In-Sea Metals are Titanium. Solid Seismic Cable Technologies, (SSCT) active sections are available for both the SeaMUX and SeaTRAK systems. The SSCT Solid Streamer is the first streamer to incorporate real time active flow noise reduction by utilizing the properties of the PVDF Thin Film Technology to create a multiple sensor configuration, where flow noise is sensed independently from acoustic energy. SSCT’s patent pending technology is combined with the acoustic output in such a way as to significantly mitigate unwanted noise due to flow while preserving acoustic amplitude and phase. The Solid Streamer active section incorporates HTI’s Patent Pending Active Flow Noise Cancelling hydrophones for significantly higher overall signal to noise ratio. Low stretch HM center stress member, torque balanced core cable design, and robust floatation all provide 2 Solid Seismic Cable a uniquely stable and resilient solid streamer design. Coupled with Passive Flow Noise Cancelling hydrophones, (Patent Pending #61427775) HTI’s Solid Streamer package provides unmatched performance and durability in the industry. All sections are equipped with the SeaMUX connector tie off adapter.
