Short Note Prestack time imaging operator for 2-D and 3-D pegleg multiples over nonflat geology

چکیده

My Least-squares Joint Imaging of Multiples and Primaries (LSJIMP) algorithm (Brown, 2003b) separates pegleg multiples and primaries. LSJIMP computes separate images of the peglegs and primaries, and then uses the mutual consistency of the images to discriminate against unwanted noise types in each image. The images must be consistent in two respects: kinematics and amplitudes. A companion paper (Brown, 2003a) paper addresses the amplitude issue. In this paper, I address the kinematics. Kinematically, the events must be correctly positioned in time and flat with offset. To this end, I derive new time imaging operator, “HEMNO” (Heterogeneous Earth Multiple NMO Operator).

Hemno - a Time-imaging Operator for Pegleg Multiples in 2-d and 3-d

To correctly image primary or multiple reflections in a heterogeneous earth, migration reigns supreme, although its computational cost may be nontrivial over complex geology, in 3-D, or when a “true amplitude” image is required. My earlier (Brown, 2002) technique to jointly image primaries and pegleg multiples used normal moveout (NMO), because of NMO’s speed and its amplitude predictability, i...

Least-squares joint imaging of multiples and primaries

Multiple reflections contain subsurface reflectivity information which often complements that found in primary reflections. Previous attempts to combine the additional information by summing prestack images of the primaries and multiples have generally failed because of crosstalk leakage between the images. We present a general linear least-squares inversion method, Least-Squares Joint Imaging ...

Least-squares joint imaging of primaries and pegleg multiples: 2-D field data test

In this paper I present an improved least-squares joint imaging algorithm for primary reflections and pegleg multiples (LSJIMP) which utilizes improved amplitude modeling and imaging operators presented in two companion papers in this report (Brown, 2003b,a). This algorithm is applied to the entire Mississippi Canyon 2-D multiples test dataset and demonstrates a good capability to separate pegl...

Multiple attenuation with multidimensional prediction-error filters

Multiple attenuation in complex geology remains a very intensive research area. The proposed technique aims to use the spatial predictability of both the signal (primaries) and noise (multiples) in order to perform the multiple attenuation in the time domain. The spatial predictability is estimated with multidimensional prediction-error filters. These filters are time-variant in order to handle...

Short Note Common-azimuth migration and Kirchhoff migration for 3-D prestack imaging: A comparison on North Sea data

Common-azimuth migration (CAM) is a 3-D prestack depth migration technique based on the wave equation (Biondi and Palacharla, 1996). It exploits the intrinsic narrow-azimuth nature of marine data to reduce its dimensionality and thus manages to cut the computational cost of 3-D imaging significantly enough to compete with Kirchhoff methods. Based on a recursive extrapolation of the recorded wav...
