Time-lapse applications of the Marchenko method on the Troll field

The data-driven Marchenko method is able to redatum wavefields to arbitrary locations in the subsurface, and can, therefore, be used to isolate zones of specific interest. This creates a new reflection response of the target zone without interference from over- or underburden reflectors. Consequently, the method is well suited to obtain a...

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...
