Title: Jacques Y Guigne: Innovator in Seismic Technology Introduction Jacques Y Guigne is an accomplished inventor based in Paradise, California. He has made significant contributions to the field of seismic technology, focusing on methods and devices that enhance the understanding of the Earth's subsurface. Latest Patents Although Jacques currently holds no patents, he has developed innovative concepts that are noteworthy. One of his latest inventions is a seismic source that incorporates earth coupling as part of the transmitter resonance. This acoustic energy source is designed to impart acoustic energy into the Earth's subsurface using an electrically driven transducer coupled to a source of swept frequency alternating current. A tunable Helmholtz resonator is positioned near the transducer, with a tuning device that maintains a resonant frequency equal to the instantaneous frequency of the alternating current. This system is particularly effective when deployed in a wellbore drilled through various rock formations, which contain layers of fluid with differing densities and viscosities. Another significant method he has developed is for acoustic imaging of the Earth's subsurface using a fixed position sensor array and beam steering. This method involves placing multiple seismic sensors in a specific pattern above the area to be evaluated. The seismic energy source is actuated repeatedly near the sensors, and the generated signals are recorded and processed to create an image of the subsurface. This innovative approach enhances the accuracy and detail of seismic surveys. Career Highlights Jacques Y Guigne is currently employed at Pangeo Subsea, Inc., where he continues to work on advancing seismic technology. His expertise in this field has positioned him as a valuable asset to his company and the broader scientific community.
