Robertus Franciscus Hegge has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Reconfigurable seismic sensor cable
    Patent number: 11573340
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a sensor cable that may be reconfigurable to have various combinations of seismic sensors. An apparatus may comprise a sensor cable and seismic sensors distributed throughout a volume of the sensor cable and along all three axes of the sensor cable, wherein the seismic sensors are assigned to sampling groups that are reconfigurable and not hardwired.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 4, 2020
    Date of Patent: February 7, 2023
    Assignee: PGS Geophysical AS
    Inventors: Robertus Franciscus Hegge, Roald G. Van Borselen
  • Prediction and subtraction of multiple diffractions
    Patent number: 10877172
    Abstract: Prediction and subtraction of multiple diffractions may include transforming previously acquired seismic data from a time-space domain to a transformed domain using a dictionary of compressive basis functions and separating, within the transformed previously acquired seismic data, a first portion and a second portion of the transformed previously acquired seismic data. Prediction and subtraction of multiple diffractions may also include predicting a plurality of multiple diffractions based on the separated first and second portions and adaptively subtracting the predicted multiple diffractions from the previously acquired seismic data. Prediction and subtraction of multiple diffractions may also include inverse transforming a particular seismic data set from the transformed domain to the time-space domain.
