ELECTROMAGNETIC SYSTEM FOR EXPLORING THE SEABED

摘要

An electromagnetic system for exploring the seabed in a marine environment includes a current injection module with two electrodes spaced apart from one another, said injection electrodes being capable of injecting a current at a predetermined voltage into the marine environment close to the seabed, said injection electrodes having a contact surface with the marine environment. The system includes a data acquisition module with at least two measuring sensors for measuring electrical or magnetic data at least two points of the marine environment close to the seabed, and a power supply module for supplying power to the current injection module. Each electrode includes one or more separate conductive elements that are electrically connected to each other and arranged in such a way as to form a conductive network or a multilayer conductive assembly having a large contact surface with the marine environment.
