ABSTRACT:
A seismic sensor cable is disclosed. The cable includes an outer jacket disposed on an exterior of the cable. The outer jacket excludes fluid from entering an interior of the cable. A reinforcing layer disposed within the outer jacket, which includes at least one electrical conductor disposed therein. An inner jacket is disposed within the reinforcing layer, and at least one electrical conductor disposed within an interior of the inner jacket. Some embodiments include at least one seismic sensor electrically coupled to the at least one electrical conductor disposed in the reinforcing layer In some embodiments a housing is disposed over the electrical coupling of the sensor to the conductor. The housing is molded from a polyurethane composition adapted to form a substantially interface-free bond with the cable jacket when the polyurethane cures.
