As a critical technological support for energy and resource development, geophysical exploration faces the dual challenges of traditional resource depletion and the transition to clean energy. This paper systematically reviews six key research directions in geophysical exploration for energy and resources: (1) development of advanced techniques for the detailed exploration of oil, gas, and traditional mineral resources; (2) geophysical innovations driven by the development of unconventional energy sources such as shale gas and gas hydrates; (3) high-precision characterization and dynamic monitoring methods of reservoir structures and physical properties; (4) integrated detection and engineering applications of geothermal resources; (5) high-resolution identification and sustainable management of groundwater resources; and (6) intelligent approaches and green mining models for mineral resource exploration. The paper highlights the integration and innovation of core technologies such as high-resolution seismic imaging, electromagnetic exploration, multi-physics coupling methods, artificial intelligence algorithms, and digital geophysical systems in practical exploration. Finally, it envisions future development trends of geophysical exploration technologies toward intelligence, automation, and low-carbonization, aiming to provide systematic theoretical references and technical guidance for scientific research and engineering practices in the energy and resource sectors.
