Abstract: In order to acquire seismic data as complete as possible and further improve the quality of cable-based seismic survey in offshore shoal area, the modes of acquisition, construction and line transfer have been adjusted depending on local conditions in offshore shoal areas. The results show that selective adoption of the improved and optimized modes can effectively mitigate the impacts of shoal area on cable-based seismic data acquisition. It is concluded that the new series of methods worked out through systematic study and innovation of the traditional acquisition, construction and line transfer modes can acquire more complete and higher quality data in offshore shoal area.

Key words: Bohai Sea, offshore shoal area, cable-based, seismic acquisition, research on modes
