摘要: 高分辨率三维海洋反射地震P-cable系统已经成功应用在海底天然气水合物、储层填图和海底灾害的研究中,特别是针对海底气烟囱和泥火山等小目标体的内部结构和空间分布特征的研究。在海底大洋钻探的目标区,P-cable系统能够提供准确的高分辨率的三维地震数据,有利于海底大洋钻探的井位选取和井位钻探时间评估。与常规的工业界使用的长电缆三维海洋反射地震比较,高分辨三维海洋反射地震P-cable系统具有简单、高效和经济实用性的优点,能够更加高效、快捷地为科研人员开展海洋地质和地球物理的研究工作,有助于为今后我国在深潜方面发现的海底“烟囱”开展详细地下高分辨率的三维地震结构调查,成为深潜方面的一个补充和一个强有力的海洋填图工具。依据实例分析并讨论了高分辨的三维海洋地震P-cable系统在海底气烟囱和泥火山内部结构以及空间分布特征方面的应用和科学研究。建议今后在海洋地球物理调查中开展高分辨的三维海洋反射地震调查和研究,特别针对广阔海域陆坡区天然气水合物、海底泥火山和气烟囱以及海底滑坡灾害方面开展更为精细的三维海洋反射地震调查和相关科学问题的研究工作。

Abstract: The P-cable system of high-resolution 3-D seismic has been successfully applied to the researches of submarine gas hydrate, reservoir mapping and seafloor geohazards, especially to the internal structure and spatial distribution patterns of small targets such as seafloor gas chimneys and mud volcanoes. The P-cable system can also provide accurate high-resolution 3-D seismic data for ocean drilling site survey, especially for site selection and drilling time estimation. Comparing to the long streamer 3-D seismic survey commonly used by the industry, the P-cable system of high-resolution 3-D seismic is more flexible and easy to users. It is simple, fast and economic to marine geological and geophysical researches. The detailed description of 3-D structures of seafloor gas chimneys, which is usually done by deep diving, can be made by the P-cable system as well and thus the P-cable system of high-resolution 3-D seismic may be used as a supplement to deep diving and a strong seafloor mapping tool in the future. In this paper, we presented some real cases on the application of the system to the internal structures description of seafloor gas chimneys and mud volcanoes and their spatial distributions. We suggest that the P-cable system of high-resolution 3-D seismic be applied more often in the future to marine geophysical survey, specially to fine marine seismic investigation and associated scientific researches related to submarine gas chimneys, seafloor mud volcanoes and slumping slides in the areas of continental slope.-
