  • Publication number: 20230022264
    Abstract: A method may include receiving, via a processor, multiple seismic datasets acquired simultaneously in response to multiple seismic waves generated by multiple sources towed by one or more vessels. The multiple seismic datasets may include an ocean bottom node datasets, a towed streamer dataset, a near field hydrophones dataset, and a vertical seismic profile dataset. The method may sensors also include performing coordinated seismic data processing using the multiple seismic datasets to generate seismic data representative of one or more subsurface regions below the water bottom, building a velocity model based on the seismic data, and generating seismic images representative of the water bottom and the one or more subsurface regions based on the velocity model.

  • Patent number: 11562655
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining object location may include a memory and a processor. The processor may be configured to collect seismic data and geophysical data to determine object location. The processor may be configured to determine one or more seismic attributes associated with a plurality types of noises based on the seismic data and the geophysical data using one or more machine learning algorithms. The processor may be configured to eliminate unwanted noises from noise classifications based on the one or more seismic attributes. The processor may be configured to predict the object location by comparing time and velocity data of the object with recorded timing and velocity data. The processor may be configured to validate the object location by comparing the determined noise with image data. The systems and methods may be used in, for example, detecting missing planes such as Malaysian Airlines Flight 370.

  • Patent number: 11467304
    Abstract: The present application pertains to methods and systems for detecting an underground archeologic structure. The method comprises transmitting P (longitudinal)-waves and S (shear)-waves into the earth. Reflected P (longitudinal)-waves and reflected S (shear)-waves are then received using one or more receivers located on the surface of the earth and one or more receivers located beneath the surface of the earth. The underground archeologic structure is identified using a differentiation between the one or more receivers located on the surface of the earth and the one or more receivers located beneath the surface of the earth.
