Russian term

технология изучения геологического разреза по вибрации бурового инструмента

Russian to English Tech/Engineering Petroleum Eng/Sci licence agreement
It's a term in a table, abbreviated to ТИГР ВБИ if it helps, and explained in a note below. I can't help feeling that there must be a simpler term in English than

Study of Geological Cross-Sections by Vibration of Drilling Tool

but maybe that's it!

(A Method of) Geological Prospecting by Drilling Tool Vibration

As a matter of fact, it is a method of geological prospecting, or seismic survey:

лучевая сейсморазведка по типу ТИГР "ВБИ" ...

So maybe you could say something like
Geological Prospecting by Drilling Tool Vibration

seismic-while-drilling vertical seismic profile
A technique for acquiring a vertical seismic profile that uses the noise of the drill bit as a source and receivers laid out along the ground or seabed; also called a drill-noise VSP. In deep water, the receiver arrays can be deployed vertically. Acquisition and processing are typically more challenging than in the more conventional types of VSPs, but the while-drilling technique can yield immediate time-depth information and, less frequently, reflection information. The information from a drill-noise VSP can be used to improve time-depth conversions while drilling, decide where to set casing in a well and evaluate drilling hazards, such as anomalous pore pressure.
