Ghost wavefield elimination is pivotal for improving the bandwidth and image resolution for marine seismic data. Synhronized multi-level source arrays, which aim to synchronize the primary wavefield and desynchronize the source ghost, can greatly attenuate the source ghost wavefield during acquistion. However, even with ...

RTM surface offset gathers (SOG) contain subsalt events spanning the entire offset range (i.e., longer usable curvatures for tomography). RTM SOGs also have more reliable residual curvatures because each offset and azimuth group is migrated independently and does not interfere with the neighboring ones ...

We designed and implemented a practical and comprehensive workflow to mitigate missing source wavelet information and waveforms with vast spatial variation for land dynamite surveys and addressed the common challenges of acoustic-FWI application on land surveys during field data preparation.

A flexible Radon modelling algorithm using time-frequency sparseness weights is introduced. The method may be used for a number of applications and combines the dealiasing and time resolution benefits of existing methods. Compared with a frequency domain sparseness approach, the proposed method results in ...

The paper gives an overview of a full 4C deblending process and its results up to migration in the case of a real 2D 4C dataset acquired offshore Malaysia. Special emphasis is put on the deblending QCs and the specificities of the deblending flow ...

We present how to create realistic geology conformal anisotropic velocity models and reduce depth misties in standard tomographic and high-resolution FWI depth velocity modelling. We assume that localized variations in both velocity and anisotropy are caused by changes in the lithology and we use ...

A conventional CMP based COV binning will create footprint and migration noise for acquisitions where sources and receivers are at different depth levels and/or PS waves are imaged. The OVT muting & weighting technique is a way to overcome this problem. The OVT muting ...

The seismic monitoring solution presented here is a permanently buried, fully automatic, and continuous seismic acquisition and processing system. It ensures remarkably repeatable daily seismic. Our specific calendar oriented 4D processing flow is described and applied on a monitoring system installed for Shell on ...

Article describes application of TomoML to our 35,000 km2 Cornerstone survey in the North Sea. Also make reference to broadband deghosting, dip-constrained channel tomography and dual azimuth.
