Advances in vibroseis seismic acquisition and processing technology
The vibroseis is one of the core seismic sources for onshore seismic exploration in the petroleum industry, characterized by controllable bandwidth and energy, environmental friendliness, and safety and efficiency. In 2024, the "Key Technologies and Equipment for Onshore Wideband, Wide-Azimuth, and High-Density Seismic Exploration" was awarded the First Prize of National Technology Invention Award, with the vibroseis seismic exploration acquisition technology as its core technology, which has a broad application prospect. This paper starts with the development history and working principle of the vibroseis, sorts out the progress of the vibroseis signal design and efficient acquisition operation methods, introduces the supporting operation and data processing technologies, and finally makes a prospect for the future development direction in combination with the advantages and limitations of the vibroseis seismic exploration acquisition technology.
