Method and device for carrying out marine electrical exploration during a ship travel

In order to increase result accuracy the noise effect during vessel motion is reduced, wherefore direct current pulses are excited the parameters of which are set basing on section conductivity and deposit depth, the electric field is measured simultaneously on pairs of receiving electrodes basing on the spatial averaging of potential of double electric layer that is generated on the boundary of electrode and water during the pulses and pauses between them, and geoelectrical parameters are determined. The device consists of an exciting field generating unit where a switchboard generates pulses on feeding electrodes, a generator consists of two parallel cable lines with emitting electrodes, a non-emitting ballast device that is a pair of alternating electric dipoles with equal moments, and a measuring unit with pairs of sectional receiving electrodes, the total length of an electrode section does not exceed 5% of the distance between the electrodes, and the connection between the electrode elements that are connected to the receiver line through a common input/output provides composition of the EMF that are generated in them.
