Acoustic Design for Micropile Characterization and Foundation Installation
FY 2022-23 · 2023-03-05
Summary
This project will advance a new concept in offshore acoustic imaging. The physics will be defined to address the requirements for high-resolution seismic beamforming of the geo-mechanical properties of the sub-seabed. The goal is to develop the acoustic imaging data acquisition and processing steps needed to characterize the formation volume surrounding micropiles supported platforms. The project will develop the acoustics as descending multiple sources generated from the advancements of a customized programmable impact drill. The design study will optimize the receivers' geometrical configurations, the generated signals, frequencies, power, transmitter coupling to the seabed, placement and type of receivers and sensors and the data processing.

Description (French)
Ce projet fera progresser un nouveau concept d’imagerie acoustique en mer. La physique sera définie pour répondre aux exigences de la formation de faisceaux sismiques à haute résolution des propriétés géomécaniques du sous-sol. L’objectif est de développer les étapes d’acquisition et de traitement des données d’imagerie acoustique nécessaires pour caractériser le volume de la formation entourant les plateformes soutenues par des micropieux. Le projet développera l’acoustique en tant que sources multiples descendantes générées par les avancées d’une foreuse à impact programmable personnalisée. L’étude de conception optimisera les configurations géométriques des récepteurs, les signaux générés, les fréquences, la puissance, le couplage de l’émetteur au fond marin, l’emplacement et le type de récepteurs et de capteurs, ainsi que le traitement des données.
