Systems and methods for retrieving seismic data acquisition units from an underwater seismic survey are provided. The system includes an underwater vehicle with a base and an underwater vehicle interlocking mechanism. The underwater vehicle receives environmental information and identifies a seismic data acquisition unit located on an ocean bottom. The underwater vehicle obtains an indication to perform a non-landing retrieval operation. The underwater vehicle sets a position of the underwater vehicle interlocking mechanism to extend away from the base of the underwater vehicle. The underwatervehicle retrieves the seismic data acquisition unit by coupling the underwater vehicle interlocking mechanism with a seismic data acquisition unit interlocking mechanism. The underwater vehicle stores the seismic data acquisition unit and then sets the underwater vehicle interlocking mechanism in a second position to perform the non-landing retrieval operation for a second seismic data acquisition unit.
提供了用于从水下地震勘测中取回地震数据采集单元的系统和方法。该系统包括具有基座的水下航行器和水下航行器联锁机构。水下航行器接收环境信息并识别位于海底的地震数据采集单元。水下航行器获得执行非着陆取回操作的指示。水下航行器设置水下航行器联锁机构的位置以从水下航行器的基座延伸开。水下航行器通过将水下航行器联锁机构与地震数据采集单元联锁机构耦合来取回地震数据采集单元。水下航行器储存地震数据采集单元,然后将水下航行器联锁机构设置在第二位置,以执行第二地震数据采集单元的非着陆取回操作。
