ABSTRACT:
A seismic acquisition system and method utilizing an array of buried geophones storage devices or containers (16) each having a geophone (40) which may be permanently stored in container (16) in a fluid tight relation. The storage container (16) includes a base (26), a tubular cylindrical body (28), and an upper cap (32) threaded onto body (28). The storage container (16) is shown in FIG. 2 in an operable relation and in FIG. 3 with geophone (40), lead (52), and connector (54) in a stored relation. In the event an additional survey or shoot is conducted at a later time, such as a one year time interval, the buried storage containers (16) are utilized upon removal of outer caps (32) and withdrawing of geophone connectors (54) for connection in a mating relation to cable connectors (20).
