Release device for a cable used during seismic surveys at sea and towed through the water behind a vessel so that in the event of the occurrence of obstacles or other occasions when it is desirable to release the cable (1) from the towing vessel, a controlled release of the cable is possible so that it is not severed, but can be recovered for further use. At one or more locations in such cables release sections (2) are inserted which contain sensors which sense loading in the section and in the event of overloading or other occasions when release is desirable, an element (5) is activated which cause a release mechanism (6) to be activated and thereby causes a split in the cable (1) at a predetermined location. |
