Really cool find. I wouldn't be suprised if the sound was created by an "as of yet unknown biological source," the fancy way of saying a new
creature. Keep us posted for further developments.

Could this be an unknown, giant seacreature saying 'hello!'?

The sound, traced to somewhere around 50° S 100° W (South American southwest coast), was detected repeatedly by the Equatorial Pacific Ocean autonomous hydrophone array, which uses U.S. Navy equipment originally designed to detect Soviet submarines. According to the NOAA description, it "rises rapidly in frequency over about one minute and was of sufficient amplitude to be heard on multiple sensors, at a range of over 5,000 km." Though it matches the audio profile of a living creature, there is no known animal that could have produced the sound. If it is an animal it would have to be huge — much larger than even a Blue Whale, according to scientists who have studied the phenomenon.

If someone is a bit confused about the 'mechanical' and 'biological' sound;
You have to listen to this soundsample to get a impression of how the original sounded like. I Recomend you plug in your headphones, turn up the volume and close your eyes.
To me it definatly sounded biological.
And by the way: It takes some time before you hear the 'monster', so you have be a little patient.

Here's a link to a page from the NOAA site which gives examples and descriptions of six unidentified sounds, including the 'Bloop', recorded
beneath the waves -

Some quotes from a CNN article -
NOAA
Some quotes from a CNN article -
In 1997, Bloop was detected by U.S. Navy "spy" sensors 3,000 miles apart that had been put there to detect the movement of Soviet submarines, the magazine reports.
The frequency of the sound meant it had to be much louder than any recognised animal noise, including that produced by the largest whales.
...
The listening stations lie hundreds of yards below the ocean surface, at a depth where sound waves become trapped in a layer of water known as the "deep sound channel".
...
Scientist Christopher Fox of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Acoustic Monitoring Project at Portland, Oregon, has given the signals names such as Train, Whistle, Slowdown, Upsweep and even Gregorian Chant.
He told New Scientist that most can be explained by ocean currents, volcanic activity -- Upsweep was tracked to an undersea South Pacific mountain that had not been identified as "live."

The Bloop is something I've studied for a bit. what is interesting is:

The site of the Bloop is remarkably close to the site of the city of R'lyeh from H. P. Lovecraft's short story "The Call of Cthulhu", where an ancient undersea monster (Cthulhu) lies sleeping. Lovecraft said that R'lyeh is located at 47°9′S, 123°43′W in the southern Pacific Ocean, with the bloop also being targeted somewhere in that range
