Seismic data interpolation with the offset continuation equation
نویسنده
چکیده
I propose a finite-difference offset continuation filter for interpolating seismic reflection data. The filter is constructed from the offset continuation differential equation and is applied on frequency slices in the log-stretch frequency domain. Synthetic data tests produce encouraging results: nearly perfect interpolation of a constant-velocity dataset with a complex reflector model and reasonably good interpolation of the Marmousi dataset.

Seismic reflection data interpolation with differential offset and shot continuation
I propose a finite-difference offset continuation filter for interpolating seismic reflection data. The filter is constructed from the offset continuation differential equation and is applied on frequency slices in the log-stretch frequency domain. Synthetic and real data tests demonstrate that the proposed method succeeds in structurally complex situations where more simplistic approaches fail.
متن کاملThree-dimensional Seismic Data Regularization a Dissertation Submitted to the Department of Geophysics and the Committee on Graduate Studies of Stanford University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
This dissertation addresses the problem of interpolating irregularly spaced seismic exploration data to regular spatial locations. This problem arises in practice in three-dimensional seismic exploration in such applications as Kirchhoff prestack migration, multiple elimination, waveequation migration, and 4-D seismic monitoring. I formulate data regularization as a linear-estimation problem an...
متن کاملOptimizing design of 3D seismic acquisition by CRS trace interpolation
Land seismic data acquisition in most of cases suffers from obstacles in fields which deviates geometry of the real acquired data from what was designed. These obstacles will cause gaps, narrow azimuth and offset limitation in the data. These shortcomings, not only prevents regular trace distribution in bins, but also distorts the subsurface image by reducing illumination of the target formatio...
متن کاملVelocity continuation in the downward continuation approach to seismic imaging - 909.full
S U M M A R Y One way of developing a wave-equation approach to seismic imaging is based on the concept of downward continuation of observed surface reflection data. Seismic imaging is typically based on the single scattering approximation, and assumes the knowledge of a smooth background model in which the mentioned downward continuation is carried out using the double-squareroot (DSR) equatio...
متن کاملVelocity Continuation in the Downward Continuation Approach to Seismic Imaging
One way of developing a wave-equation approach to seismic imaging is based on the concept of downward continuation of the surface reflection data. Seismic imaging is typically based on the single scattering approximation, and assumes the knowledge of a, smooth, background model in which the mentioned downward continuation is carried out. The downward continued data are subjected, at each depth,...
