Abstract: New and improved apparatus and method for seismic exploration on land transports sensing geophones with a flat, lightweight, towing medium or sheet which conforms to the earth's surface. The geophones are mounted on sleds attached to the towing medium by strips or members of resilient material which isolate and decouple the geophone from vibrations and the like induced, sensed, or transmitted by the towing medium. The resilient members enable the geophones and sleds to continually maintain contact with the earth's surface over irregularities in the surface to provide good ground coupling for more accurate seismic exploration results. Plural or multiple towing mediums may be coupled together and towed into place for use in accordance with the desired geophone array to be used.

Abstract: A land surface seismic prospecting cable which can be towed on the surface of the earth along seismic survey lines. The cable is used to transport, position, protect, house, or attach sensors used for making geophysical and environmental measurements. The cable apparatus may comprise a plurality of segments each interconnected by an electrical connector and each segment having a plurality of sensors associated therewith. The outputs of the signals from the sensors are carried by way of a multiconductor wire cable within the seismic cable to a seismic recorder. After an acoustic disturbance is produced and the seismic information is recorded, the towed land cable or land streamer is towed intact to the next shooting site which saves a great deal of time and allows greater areas to be covered in a predetermined time period.

Abstract: A seismic cable having minimum response to speed changes is provided. The cable includes a plurality of miniature seismic pressure sensitive detectors coupled one to another in such a manner so as to minimize through cancellation undesired electrical disturbance resulting from speed changes. Each detector includes transducers of the ceramic piezoelectric crystal type having matched geometric and physical property parameters. Each ceramic piezoelectric crystal is provided with metal electrodes such as, for example, gold, nickel, platinum, or rhodium which, in addition to being corrosion resistant and inactive as to the constituents in the ceramic material, are insoluble in liquids encountered by the detector in its use environment to avoid dendrite type growth of the metal through minute cracks developing in the ceramic which causes short circuits in the piezoelectric element.

Abstract: The seismic cable assembly disclosed is made up of a plurality of lengths of cable with each link having a plurality of electrical conductors and a tensile member extending throughout its length. The lengths of cable are strung end to end and the adjacent ends of each of the lengths are connected together by connectors that connect the tensile members of adjacent cable lengths. In this way, the entire cable assembly can be moved from position to position by dragging the assembly along the ground with the load imposed on the cable by the friction between the ground, and the cable being transmitted to the towing vehicle through the tensile members. The cable assembly is connected to the towing vehicle by a connector assembly that includes a shear pin designed to fail when the force required to move the cable assembly reaches a predetermiend amount. This protects the cable from damage should it hang up as it is being dragged along the ground. The geophones and the connectors between the lengths of cable are enclosed in housings to provide smooth surfaces for sliding across the ground, and in the case of the geophones, to add weight to the geophone to improve its contact with the ground.

Abstract: A pressure sensitive seismic detector is formed of at least two elongated sheets or layers of flexible, rubberous material having particulated magnetic material embedded therein. The particulated magnetic material is preferably barium ferrite. The layers are connected together at spaced apart locations and magnetized across the width thereof so as to form a plurality of parallel bar magnets along the length thereof with the poles of adjacent magnets reversed. Coils are wound between the bar magnets on at least one of the layers. Preferably, the sense of winding of adjacent coils is reversed, and the magnets formed in adjacent flexible sheets are aligned so that they repel each other. To form a hydrophone, the apparatus is encased in a thin flexible bag or enclosure and positioned in a liquid filled cable housing. In one embodiment, magnetic metal foil is affixed to the nonengaging surfaces of two adjacent layers of rubberous material.

Abstract: 1,143,319. Fluid-pressure servomotor systems. TELEDYNE INDUSTRIES Inc. Aug. 17, 1967 [Dec. 9, 1966], No.37866/67. Heading G3P. Apparatus for controlling the depth, d, Fig. 1, of a seismic streamer S towed behind a vessel V comprises a hollow cable C connected to the vessel at its leading end and to the streamer at its trailing end and having means H, Fig. 3, for admitting water at the latter end, means D for weighting the cable to have negative buoyancy when at least partially filled with water, a source 16, Fig. 2, of compressed gas, and valve means 26 connected between the leading end of the hollow cable and the source and adjustable to control the gas pressure and thereby the buoyancy of the cable to maintain its trailing end at a desired depth. The pressure in a depth measuring tube 18 is applied through a transducer 36 to a differential servo 30 which compares it with the pressure from a source 32 manually set to correspond to the desired depth of operation. If the depth decreases, the valve 26 is closed by the servo and pressure is slowly bled off from the cable through a valve 42 while an increase in depth opens the valve 26 to raise the pressure. A valve 28 may be left open slightly to flush the tube 18 continuously with air from the tank 16 or the tube may be blown free of water prior to each measurement. The streamer S, containing hydrophone transducers E, is filled with oil and is weighted by a copper cable while the cable C may consist of garden hose weighted by a further length of copper cable flexible enough to permit coiling on a drum. A regulator 20 provides a supply pressure of about 20 p. s. i. from the tank 16 which is filled with CO2. A gauge 34 indicates cable depth.
