The energy generated during the sampling process of a sonic vibration rig plays a crucial role in determining the stability， efficiency， and longevity of the drilling system. In this paper， the advance of sonic vibration drilling rig sampling technology at home and abroad is reviewed， the current status of research on the dynamics modelling methods of sonic vibration sampling systems and the parameters affecting the energy transfer law of the systems is described， and future research trends are foreseen. It is judged that the influence of vibration， structural， and stratigraphic parameters should be emphasized. Reasonable optimization of parameters and improvement of structure should be made to improve sampling performance and energy transfer efficiency.
