Zusammenfassung:A wellbore seismic source includes a sparker electrically coupled to a power source. The sparker is disposed in a pressure-sealed canister, wherein the canister is at least partially filled with liquid. At least one of the pressure of the liquid and the energy discharged by the power source through the sparker is selected to cause emission of acoustic energy at a selected frequency.
