发明名称 Combining seismic waves with seismoelectrics to perform prospecting and measurements
摘要 A method and apparatus for low cost, convenient prospecting and surveys of subsurface structures using seismoelectric signals, as well as laboratory analysis of geological samples. The seismoelectric signals come from seismic waves generated by sources which can be applied or natural. The seismoelectric signals are generated with the same velocity and frequency of the generating seismic waves, then induce secondary electromagnetic signals which travel at their own much higher speed. The seismoelectric signals thus may be measured with electrodes or antennas. Electrodes may be disposed within a borehole or on the surface. The method allows use of geophone data, but does not require it. The it source of the seismoelectric signals, being a moving seismic wave front, conveys continuous, whole body information on the structures underground, in much the same way as seismic ware data, but in the form of simpler, easier to capture seismoelectric signals. Reflection and refraction of seismic waves can be ascertained. The method also can be used to determine permeability and water table level. The measurement does not require use of signal phase, nor geophones nor multi-chambered pressure oscillators.
