Abstract: Amplitude-versus-angle analysis for quantitative interpretation can include creation of a plurality of angle gathers from imaging a subsurface location with multiples in a near-offset range and imaging primaries outside the near-offset range and application of an amplitude-versus-angle analysis to the plurality of angle gathers to produce a quantitative interpretation pertaining to the subsurface location.

Abstract: A horizontal component of marine seismic survey data from an ocean bottom seismic survey can be migrated using a primary wave velocity model. The horizontal component can comprise a shear converted wave. An image of a subsurface location can based on the migration can be produced. Migrating the horizontal component can comprise wave-equation migrating the horizontal component, where the horizontal component is input as both a source wavefield and a receiver wavefield.

Abstract: One embodiment relates to a technological process for identifying a potential subsurface structure below a body of water. Three-dimensional seismic sensor data that includes at least two measured components is obtained. Up-going and down-going wavefields comprising multiples wavefields are constructed from the three-dimensional seismic sensor data by applying wavefield separation. The up-going and down-going wavefields are extrapolated to a reflector surface below a water bottom. An imaging condition is applied at the reflector surface to generate images that include information from the multiples wavefields. Angle gathers are constructed, where each angle gather is constructed by gathering the images generated using the multiples wavefields for a range of illumination angles. Other embodiments, aspects and features are also disclosed.
