Organizational structure of the Union
The total number of staff of the Marine Geophysics Union at present is: 20 people, of which 14 are male; 06 female. Master: 04; Engineers: 11; Bachelor: 3; Workers: 2
The organizational structure includes:
1. The leader of the Marine Geophysics Team has a Team Leader and Deputy Leaders. The number of deputy head of the delegation shall comply with the provisions of law.
2. The Team Leader is responsible before the Union Leader and before the law for all activities of the Union and assigned tasks; develop unit rules;
sign professional documents according to their assigned functions and tasks and other documents as authorized by the Federation Head.
3. The Vice-Captain assists the Team Leader and takes responsibility before the Team Leader and law for the field of work assigned by the Team Leader.
4. Officials and employees of the Delegation perform professional tasks as assigned by the Team Leader and are answerable to the Team Leader for their assigned tasks.
Summary of achievements
Although the unit was newly established, the organization soon stabilized. Most of the staffs of the unit are still very young, but they are trained from regular universities in the right professions. New and modern geophysical machines and equipment. The main assigned task is the construction of the project “Investigation and assessment of the overall coal resources, the mainland and the Red River basin”. The unit used Sercel’s E428-XL multi-channel seismometer, Robertson’s GEOLOGGING well geophysical meter, collected and exploded hundreds of kilometers of 2D reflector lines, recording thousands of geophysical meters. bore well. The results of the initial collection-explosion and processing-analysis have identified a fault system, structural blocks and coal-containing deposits quite clearly in the Southeast part of the Khoai Chau-Tien Hai relative uplift.
Geological – seismic sections 2D – the results of measurement and analysis of documents performed in the years 2013-2015 are really a reliable basis for geologists to design drilling holes for coal exploration in the basin. spare the Red River.
In addition to the above tasks, the unit also participates in the implementation of the project “Investigation and assessment of geological structure characteristics, engineering geology, propose solutions to exploit, use the territory, serve the construction and development of coastal infrastructure in Vietnam”; actively participate in the field of scientific and technological research. Every year, the unit seeks and performs many service production contracts to create jobs and increase incomes for employees.
The Marine Geophysical Union is the unit performing the tasks with the largest annual output of the Federation, and is also the unit with the highest employee income in the whole Federation. In addition to production work, the unit is home to the youth union movement and leading literary activities in the whole Federation. The unit has been awarded many noble titles to individuals and groups by superiors in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020.
Tasks that have been and are being performed:
– Project “Investigation and assessment of the overall coal resources, the mainland, the Red River basin”.
– Project “Investigate and evaluate features of geological structure, engineering geology, propose solutions to exploit and use the territory, serving the construction and development of infrastructure in Vietnam’s coastal strip” .
– Project “Investigation of mineral geology, geological hazards, and geological environment at a scale of 1:100,000 sea areas of 0 – 30m water from Hai Phong to Nga Son, Thanh Hoa”.
– Project “Investigate and evaluate features of geological structure, engineering geology, propose solutions to exploit and use territory for construction and development of coastal infrastructure in Vietnam”.
– Ministry-level Science and Technology Project: code TNMT.2018.03.16 “Study, select and apply seismic properties to process and explain coal identification in Song Ba basin” (2018 – 2021) .
– Ministry-level Science and Technology Project: code ĐĐL.2021.04 “Research on building 3D geological – physical models of Kien Xuong – Tien Hai coal-bearing structures, Song Hong coal basin” (2021 – 2022).
