摘要:
A method for processing broadband single-sensor single-source land seismic data includes receiving seismic traces, the seismic traces generated using at least one source and at least one receiver; converting the seismic traces from particle motion measured by the at least one receiver to particle motion represented by the at least one source by applying a deterministic differential filtering operation; applying a deterministic inverse-Q filtering operation on the converted seismic traces; processing the inverse-Q filtered seismic traces using a set of surface-consistent filter and attribute corrections; and generating a seismic image based on the processed seismic traces.

Surface wave coda in seismic data recorded with a data acquisition system over an underground formation is estimated using time-reversal experiments. First time-reversal experiments use a first time-reversal mirror including a target source and one or more other sources to obtain estimates of surface waves traveling from other receivers to a target receiver. Second time-reversal experiments obtain a coda estimate for a surface wave traveling from the target source to the target receiver using a second time-reversal mirror including the target receiver and the other receivers.

Seismic data from seismic exploration surveys are mapped into a hypercube of bins or voxels in a four-dimensional space (X, Y, Offset, and Azimuth) according to Common Mid-Point (or CMP) between source and receivers. The mapped data from individual voxels or bins is then analyzed by multimodal statistics. Robust estimates of first break picks are obtained from the analysis. The first break picks are then used to as seed inputs for autopicking iteration, which proceeds to convergence. Estimates of confidence levels in the data are provided for re-picking to reduce computer processing time in successive autopicking iterations. Analysis is provided of different seismic attributes such as azimuthal velocity variations indicative of anisotropy, positioning errors of sources/receivers, geometry errors, and three dimensional distribution of inversion residuals. Analysis is also performed of standard deviation of the travel time data useful for estimating data errors in the inversion covariance matrix.

Methods and systems for estimating the residual static terms for multi-component land datasets are described. A one-pass estimation simultaneously using P-P pre-stack data and P-S pre-stack data for generating common source residual statics for the P-P data and the P-S data and separate receiver residual statics for the P-P data and the P-S data. A series of iterations are performed using either a linear or a non-linear simulation to converge on acceptable residual statics.

Method, computer device and software for calculating a corrected temporal variation (dt1)depth or a corrected relative temporal variation (dt1/t1)depth of a first body wave based on a second body wave. The method includes receiving raw seismic data recorded with a receiver; calculating arrival-time variations for the first and second body waves; calculating first and second relative temporal variations for the first and second body waves; and correcting the first relative temporal variation based on the second relative temporal variation to obtain the corrected relative temporal variation or correcting the first temporal variation based on the second temporal variation to obtain the corrected temporal variation. The second wave is either a body wave or a surface wave.

Computing device and method for calculating time-shifts associated with travel-times of seismic waves emitted by a source and recorded by plural seismic detectors after reflection from a subsurface structure. The method includes receiving seismic data (d) that includes plural traces related to a subsurface, wherein the seismic data (d) is in a time-space domain; transforming with a processor the seismic data (d) from the time-space domain to a radon domain; picking linear events from the seismic data in the radon domain; calculating the time-shifts associated with the picked linear events; correcting the seismic data (d) based on the time-shifts to obtain new seismic data (d′); and computing an image of the subsurface based on the new seismic data (d′). The time-shifts are calculated per trace and per event.
摘要:
A method of processing seismic data that includes including first and second modes of seismic energy where the second mode has been generated by partial mode conversion of the first mode at a boundary face of a layer of the seabed includes the step of cross-correlating a trace acquired at a receiver and including events corresponding to the first mode with a trace acquired at the same receiver and including events corresponding to the second mode. An event in the cross-correlated data that corresponds to partial mode conversion is identified, and the amplitude of this event is normalized, for example relative to the amplitude of the peak in the cross-correlogram at zero time delay. Information about the effects of the static shift produced by the layer and/or about vector infidelity can be arrived from normalized cross-correlograms for receivers in a receiver array.
摘要:
A method of and apparatus for processing seismic data. A method of processing seismic data comprising the steps acquiring seismic data in at least two shots that have different source-receiver azimuths from one another, and selecting events arising from interface seismic waves in each shot. The interface wave events are processed to provide information about azimuthal dependence of the velocity of seismic energy in the near-surface of the earth's interior. The invention may be used to process events arising from Scholte waves in marine seismic data, or to processing events arising from Love waves or Rayleigh waves in land seismic data. The method may be applied to seismic data acquired specifically to provide information about the near-surface or to seismic data acquired to provide information about the underlying geological structure.

摘要:
A method is disclosed for determining, without carrying out a well-velocity survey or making a priori assumption on the velocity of the first medium, the primary static corrections to be applied to sets of seismic traces after seismic prospecting operations in an underground zone. A velocity model allows calculation of the corrections is essentially obtained by performing, for each position of the common midpoint, a continuous and progressive inversion of the first arrival times (time-distance curves), from short offsets to longer offsets, so as to allow going from a sequence of pairs connecting the offsets to the arrival times picked to a sequence of vertical data connecting the depth to the velocity or propagation of the waves.
