  • Method and system of processing seismic data by providing surface aperture common image gathers
    Patent number: 10557956
    Abstract: The method processes, for each of a plurality of shots at respective source locations, seismic traces recorded at a plurality of receiver locations. Common-mid-point-modulated data are also computed by multiplying the seismic data in each seismic trace by a horizontal mid-point. A depth migration process is applied to the seismic data to obtain a first set of migrated data, and to the mid-point-modulated data to obtain a second set of migrated data. For each shot, aperture values are estimated and associated with respective subsurface positions. A migrated value for a depth and an aperture in a surface aperture common image gather at a horizontal position is a migrated value of the first set of migrated data for a shot such that the estimated aperture value associated with that subsurface position is the aperture.

  • Method of processing seismic data by providing surface offset common image gathers
    Patent number: 9632192
    Abstract: The method processes input including, for each of a plurality of shots at respective source locations, seismic traces recorded at a plurality of receiver locations. Offset-modulated data are also computed by multiplying the seismic data in each seismic trace by a horizontal offset between the source and receiver locations for said seismic trace. A depth migration process is applied to the seismic data to obtain a first set of migrated data, and to the offset-modulated data to obtain a second set of migrated data. For each shot, offset values are estimated and associated with respective subsurface positions, by a division process applied to the first and second sets of migrated data.
