Demonstrate the value of least-squares migration on various complex geology around the world. It includes real data examples published by various SI teams such as least-squares Kirchhoff for tow-streamer/OBS 4D, LS-RTM for subsalt imaging, least-square Q-PSDM on Northsea & Austrialia.

TopSeis is a radically new solution for seismic acquisition and imaging, developed through collaboration between an oil company and the service sector.

A new method is outlined that allows you to use isotropic seismic modeling and inversion technology in an anisotropic setting. The method is based on the mapping of the isotropic elastic parameters into effective elastic parameters, appropriate for the expected type of anisotropy. This ...

A recent 3D Broadseis survey was performed in the southern offshore area of Gabon, showing a wealth of detailed information in the seismic data. Understanding how these structures relate to the tectonic evolution of this basin requires the integration of the concurrently acquired gravity ...

We propose a data-driven interferometry technique to remove low frequency aliased and non-conical surface waves in cross-spread domain. Despite insufficient sampling of the constructive regions in the cross-spread domain, the proposed approach has been designed for effectively handling any kind of 3D sparse geometry ...

We present a Reflection FWI (RFWI) workflow to update the velocity model using the low-wavenumber component of the FWI gradient of reflection data. This is achieved by alternately using high-wavenumber and low-wavenumber components to update density and velocity models, respectively. With synthetic examples, we ...

Reservoir characterization methods require seismic data processed for this purpose. We propose a QC methodology for AVO and low frequency. We use a small set of attributes with which we identify signal preservation and pre-stack data consistency across the full data bandwidth. The methodology ...

Reflection-based full waveform inversion (RFWI) is increasingly used to recover long wavelengths of the background velocity model and provide updates that extend beyond the reach of diving waves. In our case study, we use an RFWI method that first updates the density using the ...

In this paper, we focus on how to use PS imaging to help detecting the reservoir in the clastic layers. PS data allows for imaging of these reservoir units that have poor P-wave but high PS-wave reflectivity and also for lithological discrimination via extracted ...
