Abstract:The Single channel seismic investigation technology, as a primary physical prospecting method, is widely applied in marine geological survey.The single channel seismic has the characteristics of flexible configuration, high construction efficiency, high medium to shallow stratigraphic resolution and wide application, and is widely used in the field of marine geological survey. In this paper, the working principle of the single channel seismic has been briefly introduced. Setting the the northern sea areas of Chudao Island in Weihai city as an example, through analysis on the single channel seismic data in this area, combining with the purpose of detection and the performance of the instrument, a targeted test plan has been established to determine the resolution. The high parameter optimization combination yields high quality, high resolution subsea formation data. Finally, through analysis on the measured sections and the drilling data, the stratigraphic division and system domain analysis are carried out, and the characteristics of the midshallow stratum and the characteristics of the submarine geological hazard are obtained. Based on the analysis of application examples, related technologies of data acquisition, processing and interpretation in single sea seismic have been explained.
