    Notes: Full-wavefield inversion of two-component (elastic), wide-aperture, seismic data from surface sources and receivers simultaneously provides 2-D estimates of both P and SV velocity distributions. The algorithm operates on common-source gathers; it involves cross-correlation of propagating source and residual wavefields to define the steepest descent direction used to update the velocities at each point in a 2-D finite-difference grid. The solution is stable even in the presence of random noise and when the input traces are unequally spaced. Examples include a stack of flat layers and a folded and faulted structure.

    Notes: Reverse-time linearized inversion is implemented for synthetic wide-aperture SH and Love wave data, including multiple reflections, to estimate the S-wave velocity in a two-dimensionally inhomogeneous medium. Complete wide-aperture wave-fields, in which triplications, pre- and post-critical reflections, and surface waves (Love waves) are present, can be imaged by reverse-time inversion to estimate the SH velocity distribution. The algorithm operates on common-source gathers and involves cross-correlation of the source and recorded wavefields to define the steepest descent direction to update the velocity at each point on a finite-difference grid. Effects of noise can be reduced by stacking information from different sources.

    Wavefield extrapolation of body waves for 3-D imaging of earthquake sources (1991)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: Reverse-time imaging of earthquake source parameters is extended from two to three spatial dimensions and from two- to three-component recordings. Provided that the recording aperture is sufficiently large, and the data are not spatially aliased, source radiation patterns, in both time and space, can be reconstructed by elastic reverse-time propagation of body waves; such reconstructions are necessarily partial as only the energy that was recorded is available for reconstruction. For a point source, the origin time and the (3-D) spatial location of an event can be reconstructed by extracting the time and position, of the best focused energy from the backward propagating wavefield. For a spatially and temporally extended source, biased estimates of fault position and rupture/slip time history can be estimated if the recording aperture is sufficient; for smaller recording apertures, the time history can still be estimated if the fault location and geometry are known a priori. The latter is viable for a reasonable number (〈200) of three-component recordings, and so is potentially applicable to real data. All these processes assume that a smoothed representation of the 3-D velocity distribution in the volume containing the source and receivers is available.

    Notes: A prestack reverse-time migration algorithm which operates on common-source gathers, recorded at the Earth's surface, from 3D structures, is conceived, implemented and tested. Reverse-time extrapolation of the recorded wavefield (a boundary-value problem), and computation of the excitation-time imaging condition for each point in a 3D volume (an initial-value problem), are both performed using a second-order finite-difference solution of the full 3D scalar wave equation. The algorithm is illustrated by processing synthetic data for a point diffractor, an oblique wedge, and the French double dome and fault model.

    Notes: The use of relaxation mechanisms has recently made it possible to simulate viscoelastic (Q) effects accurately in time-domain numerical computations of seismic responses. As a result, seismograms may now be synthesized for models with arbitrary spatial variations in compressional- and shear-wave quality factors (Q9, and Qs, as well as in density (ρ) and compressional- and shear-wave velocities (Vp, and Vs).Reflections produced by Q contrasts alone may have amplitudes as large as those produced by velocity contrasts. Q effects, including their interaction with Vp, Vs and p, contribute significantly to the seismic response of reservoirs. For band-limited data at typical seismic frequencies, the effects of Q on reflectivity and attenuation are more visible than those on dispersion.Synthetic examples include practical applications to reservoir exploration, evaluation and monitoring. Q effects are clearly visible in both surface and offset vertical seismic profile data. Thus, AVO analyses that neglect Q may produce erroneous conclusions.

    τ-p SEISMIC DATA FOR VISCOELASTIC MEDIA - PART 2: LINEARIZED INVERSION (1991)

    Notes: An approach to extraction of viscoelastic parameters from seismic data is implemented and succesfully tested. Viscoelastic inversion is performed using adaptive damping factors to control the sensitivity of the viscoelastic parameters in relation to the τ-p seismic data. A priori information is incorporated through the damping factors as standard deviations of the data and of the viscoelastic model parameters. The stability of the inversion process is controlled by the variation of the damping factors as a function of the residual errors and parameter updates at each iteration.Tests on synthetic and real data show that P- and S-wave quality factors, Qp and Qs, in addition to P- and S-wave velocities and density Cp, Cs and p, can be extracted from τ-p seismic information. Singular value decomposition analysis demonstrates that estimated Qp and Qs values are more affected by the presence of data inaccuracies and noise than are those of Cp and p. Cs and Qs are not uniquely recovered due to the limited contribution of P-S converted waves.Knowledge of the viscoelastic parameters is of particular importance in accurately describing petrophysical properties of rocks and pore fluids existing in the subsurface; this is demonstrated with real data from the Gulf of Mexico.

    Notes: Acoustic reverse-time finite-difference migration for zero-offset data is extended from two- to three-dimensional media. The formulation is based on the full three-dimensional acoustic wave equation and so has no dip restrictions and it involves extrapolation in a velocity distribution variable in three dimensions. The algorithm is demonstrated by successful migration of synthetic data sets for three models: a point diffractor, an oblique pinch-out, and a dome overlying a planar reflector.

    AUTOMATIC EDITING OF NOISY SEISMIC DATA (1989)

    Notes: Seismic data often contain traces that are dominated by noise; these traces should be removed (edited) before multichannel filtering or stacking. Noise bursts and spikes should be edited before single channel filtering. Spikes can be edited using a running median filter with a threshold; noise bursts can be edited by comparing the amplitudes of each trace to those of traces that are nearby in offset-common midpoint space. Relative amplitude decay rates of traces are diagnostic of their signal-to-noise (S/N) ratios and can be used to define trace editing criteria. The relative amplitude decay rate is calculated by comparing the time-gated trace amplitudes to a control function that is the median trace amplitude as a function of time, offset, and common midpoint. The editing threshold is set using a data-adaptive procedure that analyses a histogram of the amplitude decay rates.A performance evaluation shows that the algorithm makes slightly fewer incorrect trace editing decisions than human editors. The procedure for threshold setting achieves a good balance between preserving the fold of the data and removing the noisiest traces. Tests using a synthetic seismic line show that the relative amplitude decay rates are diagnostic of the traces’S/N ratios. However, the S/N ratios cannot be accurately usefully estimated at the start of processing, where noisy-trace editing is most needed; this is the fundamental limit to the accuracy of noisy trace editing.When trace equalization is omitted from the processing flow (as in amplitude-versus-offset analysis), precise noisy-trace editing is critical. The S/N ratio of the stack is more sensitive to type 2 errors (failing to reject noisy traces) than it is to type 1 errors (rejecting good traces). However, as the fold of the data decreases, the S/N ratio of the stack becomes increasingly sensitive to type 1 errors.

    Notes: Viscoelastic modelling reveals that the interaction of compressional-wave velocity Cp, compressional-wave quality factor Qp, shear-wave velocity Cs, shear-wave quality factor Qs and Poisson's ratio as a function of time intercept τ and ray parameter p, is complicated; however, distinct, potentially diagnostic behaviours are seen for different combinations of viscoelastic parameters.Synthetic seismograms for three viscoelastic reservoir models show that variations in the Poisson's ratio produce visible differences when compared to the corresponding elastic synthetic seismograms; these differences are attributable to interaction of the elastic parameters with Qp and Qs.When the P-wave acoustic impedance contrast is small, viscoelastic effects become more apparent and more useful for interpretation purposes. The corresponding amplitude and net phase spectra reveal significant differences between the elastic and the viscoelastic responses. When P-wave reflectivities are large, they tend to dominate the total response and to mask the Q reflectivity effects. The attenuation effects are manifested as an amplitude decay that increases with both time and ray parameter.The sensitivity of the computed seismic responses for various combinations of viscoelastic parameters suggests the opportunity for diagnostic interpretation of τ-p seismic data. The interpretation of the viscoelastic parameters can permit a better understanding of the rock types and pore fluid distribution existing in the subsurface.
