SEISMIC SOURCE SYSTEM UTILIZING A SMALL DIAMETER HOSE BUNDLE

摘要

This invention is a seismic source system (10) for marine surveying using a small diameter hose bundle (22) containing an electrical cable (40) disposed within an air hose (46) which is reinforced with torque-balanced layers of armor components (50) and protective jacket (60) and connected to a termination assembly (20) at one end for connection to an electrical power supply (18), pressurized air supply (16) and control system (14) and connected to another termination assembly (26) at the other end for connection to an air gun subarray comprising multiple air guns.
