    摘要: A lateral force and depth control device for a seismic streamer includes an inner housing including a coupling at each longitudinal end thereof. The couplings are configured to mate with a corresponding coupling at a longitudinal end of a streamer segment. The device includes an outer housing rotatably supported on the inner housing. A signal communication device is configured to transfer at least one of electrical power and signals between the inner housing and the outer housing while enabling relative rotation therebetween. A plurality of control surfaces are rotatably coupled to the outer housing and arranged about the circumference of the outer housing. The control surfaces are coupled to the outer housing by releasable couplings. A first controllable actuator and a second controllable actuator are disposed in the outer housing and functionally coupled to at least a first and a second one of the control surfaces, respectively.

    摘要: A nodal geophysical recorder includes a housing, at least one geophysical sensor disposed within the housing and a recording device for recording signals detected by the at least one geophysical sensor. A navigation device is configured to determine a path between an initial geodetic position of the housing and a selected geodetic position on the bottom of a body of water. At least one deflector is in signal communication with the navigation device and is configured to cause the housing to move along the determined path after the housing is released into the body of water from the initial position.

    摘要: A marine seismic streamer includes a jacket substantially covering an exterior of the streamer. At least one strength member is disposed along the length of the jacket. A sensor mount is coupled to the strength member. At least one particle motion sensor is suspended within the sensor mount at a selected location along the jacket. The at least one particle motion sensor is suspended in the jacket by at least one biasing device. A mass of the particle motion sensor and a force rate of the biasing device are selected such that a resonant frequency of the particle motion sensor within the sensor jacket is within a predetermined range. The sensor mount is configured such that motion of the jacket, the sensor mount and the strength member is substantially isolated from the particle motion sensor.
