Abstract: Systems and methods for seismic imaging of a subterranean geological formation include receiving parameter data representing one or more parameters of a seismic survey, the seismic data specifying an incident angle and an azimuth angle for each trace of the seismic survey; determining a relationship between the incident angle and the azimuth angle for each trace and a location in a spiral coordinate system, and generating a weighting function for applying a weight value to each trace seismic data based on the incident angle and the azimuth angle associated with each trace; and determining a residual moveout value of the seismic data for each location in the spiral coordinate system by applying the weighting function to each; and generating a seismic image representing the residual moveout value of the seismic data for each location in the spiral coordinate system.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating seismic images of subterranean features including: receiving raw seismic data of a subterranean formation; selecting a portion of the raw seismic data; transforming the selected portion of the raw seismic data from a first domain to a second domain; generating soft constraint data corresponding to the selected portion of the raw seismic data; calculating at least one weight using the generated soft constraint data; generating a weighted transformed data set by applying at least one weight to the transformed selected portion of the raw seismic data; selecting at least one data point of the generated weighted transformed data set; and removing the selected at least one data point from the weighted transformed data set to generate revised seismic data.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods and systems, including computer-implemented methods, computer program products, and computer systems, for suppressing noises in seismic data. One computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a data processing apparatus, a set of seismic data associated with a subsurface region; flattening, by the data processing apparatus, the set of seismic data according to an identified seismic event; dividing, by the data processing apparatus, the set of seismic data into a plurality of spatial windows; randomizing, by the data processing apparatus, the set of seismic data according to a random sequential order; filtering, by the data processing apparatus, the randomized seismic data; and reorganizing, by the data processing apparatus, the filtered seismic data according to a pre-randomization order.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer-readable medium for a full seismic wavefield de-aliasing workflow. To achieve the de-aliasing, the workflow employs a four-dimension (4D) anti-leakage anti-aliasing regularization algorithm. The workflow involves application of successive de-aliasing steps while restricting computations only to the significant spatial dimensions. In areas of strong elastic property variation in the near-surface, the benefit of de-aliasing the full wavefield is both significant and demonstrable. In addition to achieving de-aliased sampling of the full wavefield, the workflow reduces the complexity of both the computational and geophysical aspects of the problem of de-aliasing full wavefields.

The present invention includes beam techniques and convolving a predicted multiples beam with a segment of a modeled pegleg beam to obtain a convolved multiples beam. The convolved multiples beam can then he deconvolved to attenuate the multiples that are present in the original input beam.
