中国石油工业的掘起与腾飞，使物探装备技术得到了快速发展。地震勘探仪器经历了6次升级换代，契而不舍地追踪国外先进技术，保持了与时俱进、同步发展的局面；可控震源技术走“引进、吸收、消化、创新”的道路，经过20多年的艰辛研发，达到领先或局部领先国际的技术水平；地震辅助装备坚持“自力更生、自主开发”方针，经历30多年探索与创新，使国产设备闪亮挤身于国际勘探市场。自主开发的辅助装备，也取得了长足的进步。

The rapid growth of China petroleum industry has brought about the steady development of its geophysical equipment technology. For example, our seismic instrument has experienced its sixth upgrade. As a result, our geophysical equipment technology has met world advanced standards. After 20 years of painstaking efforts in R&D and by means of technology-introducing, digesting, absorbing, and innovating, some of our vibrator technologies have reached the world advanced level and still some have taken the world leading positions. Our seismic auxiliary equipment has much improved and earned its reputation in the global market after 30 years of independent R&D.
