Abstract: A seismic survey system having a source array (11) coupled to a deflector device (15) that controls the position of the source array. A positioning system unit (16) is mounted on the source array to provide a signal to a controller, informing the controller of the current position of the source array so that the controller can control the position of the deflector device (15) and the coupled source array. A seismic source (14) on the source array may be triggered when the source array is at a desired location as measured by the positioning system unit. The deflector device (15) comprises one or more wings (18) in a generally vertical or, alternatively, in a generally horizontal arrangement disposed adjacent to a central body (19). The streamlined central body has connection points that allow the deflector device (15) to be connected to a tow cable (13) from the tow vessel (12) and to the source array (11).

Abstract translation: 一种具有耦合到控制源阵列的位置的偏转器装置（15）的源阵列（11）的地震勘测系统。 定位系统单元（16）安装在源阵列上以向控制器提供信号，向控制器通知源阵列的当前位置，使得控制器可以控制偏转器装置（15）的位置和耦合 源数组。 当源阵列位于由定位系统单元测量的所需位置时，可以触发源阵列上的震源（14）。 偏转器装置（15）包括一个或多个翼（18），其大致垂直或可选地，大致水平布置，邻近中心体（19）设置。 流线型的中心体具有允许偏转器装置（15）从丝束束（12）和源阵列（11）连接到牵引缆索（13）的连接点。
