  • Patent number: 9217803
    Abstract: Computing device and method for calculating time-shifts associated with travel-times of seismic waves emitted by a source and recorded by plural seismic detectors after reflection from a subsurface structure. The method includes receiving seismic data (d) that includes plural traces related to a subsurface, wherein the seismic data (d) is in a time-space domain; transforming with a processor the seismic data (d) from the time-space domain to a radon domain; picking linear events from the seismic data in the radon domain; calculating the time-shifts associated with the picked linear events; correcting the seismic data (d) based on the time-shifts to obtain new seismic data (d?); and computing an image of the subsurface based on the new seismic data (d?). The time-shifts are calculated per trace and per event.

  • Publication number: 20120213032
    Abstract: Apparatus, computer instructions and method for de-pegging seismic data related to a subsurface of a body of water. The method includes receiving as input recorded seismic data (H, G), wherein the recorded seismic data is recorded with a receiver having at least three components; extracting a three-dimensional (3D) gather from the recorded seismic data (H, G); separating up-going and down-going components (U, D) from the 3D gather using a 3D calibration operator (Gcal); and calculating de-pegged seismic data (P) based on the up-going and down-going components (U, D). The de-pegged seismic data (P) is calculated with no radon transform.
