Estimating the term…
In order to increase result accuracy the noise effect during vessel motion is reduced, wherefore direct current pulses are excited the parameters of which are set basing on section conductivity and deposit depth, the electric field is measured simultaneously on pairs of receiving electrodes basing on the spatial averaging of potential of double electric layer that is generated on the boundary of electrode and water during the pulses and pauses between them, and geoelectrical parameters are determined. The device consists of an exciting field generating unit where a switchboard generates pulses on feeding electrodes, a generator consists of two parallel cable lines with emitting electrodes, a non-emitting ballast device that is a pair of alternating electric dipoles with equal moments, and a measuring unit with pairs of sectional receiving electrodes, the total length of an electrode section does not exceed 5% of the distance between the electrodes, and the connection between the electrode elements that are connected to the receiver line through a common input/output provides composition of the EMF that are generated in them.
A method of marine electrical exploration during vessel motion, consisting in the following:
A device for marine electrical exploration during vessel motion, which consists of an exciting field generation unit, which includes a switchboard generating two bipolar rectangular direct current pulses on feeding electrodes with 0.5 to 10 s duration and 5 to 1000 A current strength, with a relative duration of the pulse sequence set by program, a ship generator, unit consisting of two cable lines, where the first line is 100 m long or shorter and has at least one emitting electrode on the end or near the end, and the second line is 500 to 1000 m long and has at least one emitting electrode on the end or near the end, both lines are parallel, placed behind the vessel stern, and made of cable with 5-15% positive buoyancy, the emitting electrodes are made of conductive material allowing their slow destruction at passage of current, a non-emitting ballast device placed behind the vessel stern and being pairs of differently directed electrical dipoles with equal moments, a signal measurement unit comprising a receiver multi-electrode cable line placed behind the vessel stern on a given depth from the water surface, with length of 1,000 to about 2,000 m, made of stranded cable with a buoyancy close to neutral, connected to a multi-channel measurement device and equipped with receiving electrodes placed on a receiver multi-electrode cable line with a 100 to about 200 m interval, which are spatially located both between the emitting electrodes of the generator plant and behind them, a resistivity meter, a multi-channel measurement device, a ship echo sounder, a Global Position System reception indicator, a signal processor, wherein each of the receiving electrodes is a sectional electrode, the total length of all sections of which does not exceed 5% of the distance between the electrodes (span), the elements of a sectional electrode are electrically connected to each other so that the EMF in them are added, and they are connected to the receiver multi-electrode cable line through a common input/output.
