Amplitude Recovery and Deconvolution of Chirp and Boomer Data for Marine Geology and Offshore Engineering

The processing of Chirp data is limited by the usual recording signal envelope, which enhances its immediate visibility but prevents applying methods based on wave equations. This normally not case for Boomer data. However, both systems are monochannel instruments, cannot estimate properly propagation velocity in rocks. In this paper, we present two theorems: first one links or source spectrum with an expected amplitude decay curve; second defines conditions deconvolution stability enveloped when full waveform known. way, can jointly process and integrate heterogeneous surveys including types. We validated proposed algorithms them to synthetic real presented tools improve image resolution characterization geological formations marine reflectivity anomalies, distorted standard equalization methods.
