Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A monitoring system for use in seismic instrument arrangement in petroleum exploration, belonging to the technical field of network transmission of seismic instrument arrangement information, comprises a host server and a hand-held terminal device, wherein the host server is configured to be connected to a host machine of a seismic instrument, manipulated by an instrument operator, can extract the seismic instrument arrangement information, classify field arrangement information based on the corresponding setting and transmit the arrangement information by using a 2G/3G network; the hand-held terminal device can receive the field arrangement information transmitted by the host server, by the 2G/3G network, and alarm and remind line inspection personnel to conduct an arrangement check; after completing the inspection task, the line inspection personnel can send inquiry information via the hand-held terminal device to inquire of the instrument operator about the line inspection condition. The present invention reduces the difficulty of checking an arrangement at the time of the seismic exploration and production, shortens the required time for checking an arrangement and plays an important role in improving a production efficiency of seismic exploration.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A monitoring system for use in seismic instrument arrangement in petroleum exploration, characterized by comprising: a host server and a hand-held terminal device, wherein the host server is configured to be connected to a host machine of a seismic instrument, manipulated by an instrument operator, used to extract seismic instrument arrangement information, classify field arrangement information based on the corresponding setting and transmit the arrangement information by a 2G/3G network; the hand-held terminal device receives the field arrangement information transmitted by the host server, by the 2G/3G network, and alarms and reminds line inspection personnel to conduct an arrangement check; after completing the inspection task, the line inspection personnel send inquiry information via the hand-held terminal device to inquire of the instrument operator about the line inspection condition. 2 . The monitoring system for use in seismic instrument arrangement in petroleum exploration according to claim 1 , characterized by comprising: a host server and a hand-held terminal device, wherein the host server comprises: a first software interface unit, a data extraction unit, a data classification storage unit, a first 2G/3G network communication unit, wherein the first software interface unit is configured to a seismic instrument operator to set, order the host software and line-check the corresponding state; the data extraction unit is configured to perform at least one of the following operations: inputting the seismic instrument arrangement information, automatically reading a seismic instrument data file and making an inputting in batch by the seismic instrument operator manually; the data classification storage unit is configured to classify and store the extracted seismic data based on the setting by the seismic instrument operator; the first 2G/3G network communication unit is configured to receive and send the corresponding information between the host server and the hand-held terminal device by a 2G/3G network; the hand-held terminal device comprises: a second software interface unit, a control unit, a data processing unit and a second 2G/3G network communication unit, wherein the second software interface unit is configured to display the corresponding seismic data arrangement content on a data display unit of a hand-held terminal module based on setting requirements; the control unit is configured to control an overall working process of the hand-held terminal module; the data processing unit is configured to modulate and transmit, receive and demodulate, and classify and store data, the second 2G/3G network communication unit is configured to receive and send the corresponding information between the host server and the hand-held terminal device by the 2G/3G network. 3 . The monitoring system for use in seismic instrument arrangement in petroleum exploration according to claim 1 , characterized in that, the host server is configured to be connected to the host machine of the seismic instrument, obtain the seismic instrument arrangement information or input an instant message, and transmit said information through the 2G/3G network; meanwhile, the hand-held terminal device is configured to receive the seismic arrangement state information and instant message by installation of a terminal software, and display the arrangement information on the screen based on the setting by the line inspection personnel, or configured to transmit an instant message to the host server or transmit the seismic instrument arrangement inquiry information; after the internal software starts running, the host server first determines whether it needs to receive information, if the information has been received, it needs to determine said information is inquiry information or message information, if it is inquiry information, automatically refreshing the seismic instrument arrangement information and extracting arrangement data based on the inquiry content, and transmitting to the corresponding inquirer, if it is message information, displaying said instant message and giving a warning and reminder; the software inside the host server obtains the seismic arrangement state information by setting two modes of automatic extraction and manual input, wherein the mode of automatic extraction, at a set certain time interval, obtains the seismic arrangement information from the seismic data file generated by the seismic instrument, the mode of manual input copies the arrangement information into the software inside the host server after the instrument operator tests the arrangement state, the software inside the host server after obtaining the arrangement information will classify and store the seismic instrument arrangement information data according to the preset threshold range and relevant conditions and transmit to the corresponding hand-held terminal device through the 2G/3G network, the software inside the host server will repeatedly refresh the seismic arrangement content at the preset time interval and repeatedly transmit the newest seismic arrangement information to the hand-held terminal device; the software inside the hand-held terminal device at the time of running first determines whether it has received information from the host server, after receiving instant information, it needs to determine said information is instant message information or seismic arrangement information, if the received information is instant message information, displaying said information and issuing a warning sound to remind, if the received information is seismic instrument arrangement information, storing and displaying the arrangement information based on setting requirements, such information is automatically refreshed at the time interval; meanwhile, the line inspection personnel use the hand-held terminal device to transmit an instant message to the host server or set specific arrangement inquiry information.
