Surface-waves suppression using seismic interferometry for imaging and monitoring of the Groningen subsurface

High-resolution seismic reflections are essential for imaging and monitoring applications using data-driven methods such as seismic interferometry (SI) and Marchenko redatuming. For seismic land surveys using sources and receivers at the surface, the surface waves are the dominant noises that mask the reflections. We use SI to suppress surface...

Monitoring changes inside subsurface layers using non-physical reflections retrieved from seismic interferometry

Seismic interferometry (SI) is a principle for retrieving responses between two receivers using cross-correlation. After the retrieval, one of the receivers acts as a virtual seismic source whose response is retrieved at the second receiver. Correct response retrieval relies on assumptions, among other, of a lossless medium being illuminated...
