    Notes: Conventional finite-difference modelling algorithms for seismic forward modelling are based on a time-stepping scheme with a constant (global) time step. Large contrasts in the velocity model or in the spatial sampling rate cause oversampling in time for some regions of the model. The use of locally adjustable time steps can save large amounts of computation time for certain modelling configurations.  The computation of spatial derivatives across the transition zone between regions of the model with different temporal sampling requires the definition of the wavefield at corresponding time levels on both sides of the transition zone. This condition can be obtained by extrapolation in time, which is inaccurate, or by multiple time integration in the transition zone. The error in the latter solution is of the same order as the conventional time-stepping scheme because both methods are based on the same iteration formula. The technique of multiple time integration simply requires the use of different sizes of time step. It is applicable only for certain factors of variation of the time step.

    Description: Imaging of diffractions is a challenge in seismic processing. Standard seismic processing is tuned to enhance reflections. Separation of diffracted from reflected events is frequently used to achieve an optimized image of diffractions. We present a method to effectively separate and image diffracted events in the time domain. The method is based on the common-reflection-surface-based diffraction stacking and the application of a diffraction-filter. The diffraction-filter uses kinematic wavefield attributes determined by the common-reflection-surface approach. After the separation of seismic events, poststack time-migration velocity analysis is applied to obtain migration velocities. The velocity analysis uses a semblance based method of diffraction traveltimes. The procedure is incorporated into the conventional common-reflection-surface workflow. We apply the procedure to 2D synthetic data. The application of the method to simple and complex synthetic data shows promising results.

    Description: A processing workflow was introduced for reflection seismic data that is based entirely on common-reflection-surface (CRS) stacking attributes. This workflow comprises the CRS stack, multiple attenuation, velocity model building, prestack data enhancement, trace interpolation, and data regularization. Like other methods, its limitation is the underlying hyperbolic assumption. The CRS workflow provides an alternative processing path in case conventional common midpoint (CMP) processing is unsatisfactory. Particularly for data with poor signal-to-noise ratio and low-fold acquisition, the CRS workflow is advantageous. The data regularization feature and the ability of prestack data enhancement provide quality control in velocity model building and improve prestack depth-migrated images.

    Description: Time migration is an attractive tool to produce a subsurface image because it is faster and less sensitive to velocities errors than depth migration. However, a highly focused time image is only achievable with well-determined time-migration velocities. Therefore, a refinement of the initial time-migration velocities often is required. We introduced a new technique for prestack time migration, based on the common-migrated-reflector-element stack of common scatterpoint gathers, including an automatic update of time-migration velocities. The common scatterpoint gathers are generated using a new formulation of the double-square-root equation that is parametrized with the common-offset apex time. The common-migrated-reflector-element stack is a multiparameter stacking technique based on the Taylor expansion of traveltimes of time-migrated reflections in the paraxial vicinity of the image ray. Our 2D synthetic and field data examples demonstrated that the proposed method provides updated time-migration velocities that are more robust and have higher resolution compared with the initial time-migration velocities. The prestack time migration method also showed a clear improvement of the focusing of reflections for such geologic features as faults and salt structures.
