摘要:
A method for towing marine geophysical sensor streamers in a body of water includes moving a towing vessel at a selected speed along the surface of the body of water. At least one geophysical sensor streamer is towed by the vessel at a selected depth in the water. A velocity of the streamer in the water is measured at at least one position along the streamer. The selected speed of the towing vessel is adjusted if the measured velocity is outside of a selected range.

A method for operating a geophysical sensor streamer in body of water includes operating a remotely operated vehicle coupled to a forward end of the streamer to tow the streamer in the water. Signals generate by sensors on the streamer are communicated substantially in real time to a recording unit on a survey vessel using at least one of electrical and optical cables in an umbilical cable connecting the remotely operable vehicle to the survey vessel.
摘要:
A sensor streamer stretch section includes at least one spring. A means for coupling the spring at each end to at least one of a sensor streamer and a lead in cable is included. A cable is coupled at its ends to the means for coupling. The cable is capable of carrying at least one of electrical and optical signals. The cable is formed such that the cable undergoes substantially no axial strain when the shock cord is elongated. An adjustable damper is coupled between the means for coupling at each end of the stretch section.

A method for electromagnetic surveying below the bottom of a body of water includes deploying a plurality of nodal recording devices in a selected pattern on the water bottom. An electromagnetic transmitter is towed in the water. At least one electromagnetic sensor streamer is concurrently towed in the water. The electromagnetic transmitter is actuated at selected times and signals detected by sensors in the nodal recording devices and in the at least one streamer are recorded.

A marine electromagnetic sensor cable includes a first jacket covering an exterior of the cable. At least one wire loop is disposed on the exterior of the first jacket. The wire loop is shaped to have a magnetic dipole moment along a selected direction. A contact ring is disposed inside the first jacket to make electrical connection between the at least one wire loop and an associated signal processing circuit disposed inside the first jacket.
摘要:
A marine electromagnetic sensor cable system includes a first sensor cable subsystem including at least a first sensor cable segment. The first sensor cable segment includes a plurality of spaced apart electrodes which electrically contact a body of water when the first sensor cable segment is immersed therein, and an electrical conductor coupled to each electrode, each electrical conductor extending from one longitudinal end of the sensor cable segment to the other. The system includes a first signal processing module electrically coupled to a longitudinal end of the first sensor cable segment, and including a voltage measuring circuit electrically connected between two or more electrodes from the first plurality of electrodes. Marine electromagnetic surveys are conducted using the marine electromagnetic sensor cable system.
