Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations including: receiving prestack single sensor seismic data; representing traveltime moveout of the prestack single sensor seismic data locally as a second-order curve; calculating, using the prestack single sensor seismic data, local kinematic parameters that define the second-order curve; and performing, based in part on the local kinematic parameters, wavefield transformation on the single sensor seismic data to generate enhanced prestack single sensor seismic data.

Abstract: The disclosure provides systems and methods to enhance pre-stack data for seismic data analysis by: sorting the reflection seismic data acquired from cross-spread gathers into sets of data sections; performing data enhancement on the sets of data sections to generate enhanced traces by: (i) applying forward normal-moveout (NMO) corrections such that arrival times of primary reflection events become more flat, (ii) estimating beamforming parameters including a nonlinear traveltime surface and a summation aperture, (iii) generating enhanced traces that combine contributions from original traces in the sets of data sections, and (iv) applying inverse NMO corrections to the enhanced traces such that temporal rearrangements due to the forward NMO corrections are undone.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for determining a velocity model for a geological region. In one aspect, a method comprises: obtaining a current velocity model for the geological region; obtaining pre-stack and post-stack seismic data characterizing the geological region; and for each of a plurality of iterations: identifying a plurality of reflection events from the post-stack seismic data and the current velocity model; determining a respective observed travel time for each of the plurality of reflection events, comprising, for each reflection event, determining the respective observed travel time for the reflection event based at least in part on kinematic features derived from a respective seismic trace included in the pre-stack seismic data; and updating the current velocity model based at least in part on the observed travel times of the plurality of reflection events.

Abstract: Computing systems and methods for improving processing of collected data are disclosed. In one embodiment, while ray-tracing through a sub-surface region, a frequency-dependent outgoing ray direction is computed from a point on an interface disposed in the sub-surface region when the ray tracing is at the interface.
