A broadband Wide-Azimuth Towed-Streamer (WATS) survey was acquired in a shallow water region of offshore China for the purpose of resolving strike direction narrow-azimuth acquisition shortcomings. However, the current WATS acquisition is much sparser than WATS surveys in deep water environments. The challenges of ...

2D deconvolution is an attractive approach for short period multiple prediction as it does not require direct recording of the multiple generator and can model multiples relating to more than one multiple generator at a time. One drawback, however, relates to an inherent over ...

Make a technical workflow including rockphysics, post-stack gestatistical inversion, seismic forward research and coal constrained pre-stack geostatistical inversion for the fine reservoir predictiong under coal interbedded. This work flow achieved huge success in the new development wells drilling.

A subsurface volume that can be reliably interpreted in terms of geologically-relevant attributes is a reasonable objective for products from depth inversion workflows. Commonly the field geophysics data available are inherently non-unique and deficient (noise, aliasing, etc.), so an implementation of some type of ...

Standard reflection-based model building for land applications is challenging due to reduced data quality, near-surface heterogeneities, and the low-fold of reflection data at shallow depths. Broadband and large offset data acquisitions have been developed with the aim of investigating full waveform inversion (FWI) as ...

Conventional Full Waveform Inversion (FWI), mostly based on diving-waves, has become a standard velocity model building tool. Using a dataset from the deep water on the Mexican side of the Gulf of Mexico (GoM), we show that FWI can be effective at resolving different ...

This paper presents leanings from the 2015 and 2016 North Sea acquisition season with regards to acquiring data with lots of seismic interference noise.

Kaskida is a large three-way reservoir underneath a complex salt body and truncated by a salt weld. Seismic imaging at the reservoir level is impacted by the inhomogeneous illumination from the complex overburden, which distorts the amplitude of reservoir reflectors and generates lots of ...

In offshore prospective areas, oil slicks at the sea surface are often seen as being the visible expression of a working petroleum system at depth. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has proven to be an effective tool for identifying these oil slicks by virtue of ...
