Subsurface Imaging with Reverse Vertical Seismic Profiles
A novel imaging process, referred to as vector image isochron (VII) migration, is specifically designed to reduce artifacts caused by arrays with limited apertures. By examining the assumptions behind generalized Radon transform (GRT) migration, a new approach is found which identifies and suppresses array artifacts, based on the array geometry and the migration earth model. The new method work...
متن کاملToward subsurface illumination-based seismic survey design
The usual approach to the acquisition of 2-D and 3-D seismic surveys is to use a recording template designed from the maximum target dips and depths. This template is used through out the survey area irrespective of changes in the dips, depths or propagation velocities of the targets. I propose to base the survey design on an initial structural and velocity model of the subsurface. The initial ...
متن کاملExtracting Seismic Profiles from Background Seismic Signals
The idea of obtaining the seismic trace representing the impulse response at one receiver due to a source at another receiver has discussed by many authors. Jon Claerbout (see e.g. Rickett and Claerbout, 1996; Claerbout, web) introduced the concept to seismology. It has been investigated in the laboratory by Lobkis and Weaver (2001), observed in seismic data by Campillio and Paul (2003), and in...
متن کاملDrilling Automation for Subsurface Planetary Exploration
Future in-situ lunar/martian resource utilization and characterization, as well as the scientific search for life on Mars, will require access to the subsurface and hence drilling. Drilling on Earth is hard – an art form more than an engineering discipline. The limited mass, energy and manpower in planetary drilling situations makes application of terrestrial drilling techniques problematic. Th...
متن کاملDrilling systems for extraterrestrial subsurface exploration.
Drilling consists of 2 processes: breaking the formation with a bit and removing the drilled cuttings. In rotary drilling, rotational speed and weight on bit are used to control drilling, and the optimization of these parameters can markedly improve drilling performance. Although fluids are used for cuttings removal in terrestrial drilling, most planetary drilling systems conduct dry drilling w...
