  • Publication number: 20190369277
    Abstract: A full wave inversion (FWI) may utilize an Amplitude-Frequency-Differentiation (AFD) or a Phase-Frequency-Differentiation (PFD) operation to form a velocity model of a subterranean formation utilizing recovered low wavenumber data. Received seismic data is processes to isolate two data signals at different frequencies. In an AFD operation, the two data signals are summed and the data of the envelope of the summed function is used for the FWI. In a PFD operation, the phase data of the quotient of the two data signals is used for the FWI. The FWI proceeds iteratively utilizing either the AFD or PFD data or with single frequency data until the cost function of the AFD or PFD is satisfied.

  • Patent number: 10345466
    Abstract: A memory-efficient Q-RTM computer method and apparatus for imaging seismic data is described. A seismic image may be formed from a memory-efficient Q-RTM module utilizing received attenuated seismic data. Seismic data is processed by the memory-efficient Q-RTM module to compensate for amplitude attenuation and phase velocity dispersion simultaneously during back-propagation in RTM. A negative quality factor, Q, is obtained by modifying the wave equation to compensate for amplitude attenuation. One or more dispersion optimization terms introduced to a wave equation for compensation of Q effects on the phase, solved by a finite difference algorithm, compensate for phase velocity change and further adjust amplitude attenuation compensation.

  • Publication number: 20140372043
    Abstract: Method for reconstructing subsurface profiles for seismic velocity or other geophysical properties from recorded seismic data. In one embodiment, a starting model of seismic velocity is assumed (10). The computational domain is divided into two (or more) subdomains by horizontal planes based on an analysis of velocity model (30), and the allowed maximum grid size for each subdomain is determined (50). Auxiliary perfectly matched layers (PML's) are attached to each planar interface between subdomains (80), e.g. two PML's on each side of the interface between the coarse and fine subdomains. Simulated seismic data are computed using the SG-DO technique (100-230). The simulated seismic data are compared to the recorded seismic data, then the residual is calculated (240) and used to update the model (320). The method may be iterated until the model is suitably converged (260).

  • Patent number: 8553498
    Abstract: Method for reconstructing subsurface Q models (110) from seismic data (10) by performing ray-based (60), centroid frequency shift (50) Q tomography. The seismic source waveform's amplitude spectrum is approximated by a frequency-weighted exponential function of frequency (40), having two parameters to adjust to fit the frequency shift data, thereby providing a better fit to various asymmetric source amplitude spectra. Box constraints may be used in the optimization routine, and a multi-index active-set method used in velocity tomography is a preferred technique for implementing the box constraints (100).
