ABSTRACT:
A cable reeling apparatus particularly useful for reeling and dereeling cable for seismic signal recording operations includes a lightweight frame on which a propulsion unit and drive shaft for a cable spool are supported. The cable spool is permanently mounted on the shaft and includes a removable side flange so that coils of cable may be mounted on and demounted from the spool. The spool hub and flanges are provided with cooperating grooves for receiving flexible strapping wherein the coil of cable may be bound at circumferentially spaced points before removal from the spool and field operations may be carried out without dedicated spools for each cable coil.
