Combining Multidirectional Source Vector with Antitruncation-Artifact Fourier Transform to Calculate Angle Gathers from Reverse Time Migration in Two Steps
(Society of Exploration Geophysicists, 2017-08-11)Because receiver wavefields reconstructed from observed data are not as stable as synthetic source wavefields, the source-propagation vector and the reflector normal have often been used to calculate angle-domain common-image ... -
Estimation of Gas Hydrate and Free Gas Saturation, Concentration, and Distribution from Seismic Data
(Society of Exploration Geophysicists, 2018-08-24)Gas hydrates contain a major untapped source of energy and are of potential economic importance. The theoretical models to estimate gas hydrate saturation from seismic data predict significantly different acoustic/ elastic ... -
Up/Down and P/S Decompositions of Elastic Wavefields Using Complex Seismic Traces with Applications to Calculating Poynting Vectors and Angle-Domain Common-Image Gathers from Reverse Time Migrations
(Society of Exploration Geophysicists, 2018-06-01)Separations of up- and down-going as well as of P- and S-waves are often a part of processing of multicomponent recorded data and propagating wavefields. Most previous methods for separating up/down propagating wavefields ... -
Common-Reflection-Point Migration Velocity Analysis of 2D P-Wave Data From TTI Media
(Soc Exploration Geophysicists, 2014-05)We have developed a common-reflection-point (CRP)-based kinematic migration velocity analysis for 2D P-wave reflection data to estimate the four transversely isotropic (TI) parameters VPo, δ, and ε, and the tilt angle ϕ ... -
Comparison of Methods for Extracting ADCIGS from RTM
(Soc Exploration Geophysicists, 2014-04-01)Methods for extracting angle-domain common-image gathers (ADCIGs) during 2D reverse-time migration fall into three main categories; direction-vector-based methods, local-plane-wave decomposition methods, and local-shift ...
