Processes and systems described herein are directed to performing marine surveys with marine vibrators that emit orthogonal coded pseudo-random sweeps. In one aspect, coded pseudo-random signals are generated based on coded pseudo-random sequences. The coded pseudo-random sequences are used to activate the marine vibrators in a body of water above a subterranean formation. The activated marine vibrators generate orthogonal coded pseudo-random sweeps. A wavefield emitted from the subterranean formation in response to the orthogonal coded pseudo-random sweeps is detected at receivers located in a body of water. Seismic signals generated by the receivers may be cross-correlated with a signature of one of the orthogonal coded pseudo-random sweeps to obtain seismic data with incoherent residual noise.
