Least-squares reverse time migration (LSRTM) is a common imaging technique that geophysicists have been using to obtain high-resolution images. Nevertheless, the high computational cost shifted the focus of researchers to the target-oriented approach. In this approach, by limiting the computational grid to a relatively smaller region, the...

Green’s functions in an unknown elastic layered medium can be retrieved from single-sided reflection data by solving a Marchenko equation. This methodology requires a priori knowledge of all forward-scattered (non-converted and converted) waveforms. Moreover, the medium should satisfy stringent monotonicity conditions, which are often not met in...

Green’s functions in an unknown medium can be retrieved from single-sided reflection data by solving a multidimensional Marchenko equation. This methodology requires knowledge of the direct wavefield throughout the medium, which should include forward-scattered waveforms. In practice, the direct field is often computed in a smooth background...

Wavefield focusing can be achieved by Time-Reversal Mirrors, which involve in- and output signals that are infinite in time and waves propagating through the entire medium. Here, an alternative solution for wavefield focusing is presented. This solution is based on a new integral representation where in- and output signals are finite in time,...

Marchenko imaging is a novel imaging technique that is capable to retrieve images from single-sided reflection measurements free of artefacts related to internal multiples (e.g. Behura et al., 2014; Broggini et al., 2012). An essential ingredient of Marchenko imaging is the so-called focusing function which can<br/>be retrieved from reflection...

The Santos basin in Brazil suffers from strong internal multiples that overlap with primaries from the pre-salt reservoirs. We propose an adaptive double-focusing method for the removal of these multiples to obtain a correct image of the target area. The proposed method applies a form of source-receiver Marchenko redatuming to the reflection...

A revised Marchenko scheme that avoids the need to compute the Green’s function is presented for artefact-free image of the subsurface with single-sided reflection response as input. The initial downgoing Green’s function which can be modelled from a macro model is needed for solving the revised Marchenko equations instead of its inverse. The...

We present an adaptive double-focusing method for applying source-receiver Marchenko redatuming to field data. Receiver redatuming is achieved by a first focusing step, where the coupled Marchenko equations are iteratively solved for the oneway Green’s functions. Next, source redatuming is typically performed by a multi-dimensional deconvolution...

Seismic interferometry is a method to retrieve Green’s functions for sources (or receivers) where there are only receivers (or sources, respectively). This can be done by correlationor deconvolution-based methods. In this work we present a<br/>new approach to reposition the seismic array from the earth’s surface to an arbitrary datum at depth...

The Marchenko equation can be used to retrieve the Green’s function at depth as a full function or decomposed into its upand downgoing parts. We show that the equation can be rewritten to create a decomposition scheme that can decompose a full wavefield, that was recorded at depth, into its up- and downgoing parts. We show that this can be done...

The question whether multiples are signal or noise is subject of ongoing debate. In this paper we consider correlation and deconvolution imaging methods and analyse to what extent multiples contribute to the image in these methods. Our starting point is the assumption that at a specific depth level the full downgoing and upgoing fields (both...

We compare the coupled Marchenko equations without free-surface multiples to the coupled Marchenko equations including free-surface multiples. When using the conventional method of iterative substitution to solve these equations, a difference in convergence behaviour is observed, suggesting that there is a fundamental difference in the...

A standard procedure in processing vertical seismic profile (VSP) data is the separation of up-and downgoing wavefields. We show that the up-down wavefields in boreholes can be reconstructed using only singlecomponent borehole data, given that a full set of surface reflection data is also available. No medium parameters are required. The method...

Understanding seismic changes in the subsurface is important for reservoir management and health, safety and environmental (HSE) issues. Typically the changes are interpreted based on the time shifts in seismic time-lapse (4D) data, where sources are at the surface and receivers are either at the surface or in a borehole. With these types of...

The homogeneous Green’s function (i.e., the Green’s function and its time-reversed counterpart) plays an important role in optical, acoustic and seismic holography, in inverse scattering methods, in the field of time-reversal acoustics, in reversetime migration and in seismic interferometry. Starting with the classical closed-boundary...

By solving the Marchenko equations, the Green’s function can be retrieved between a virtual receiver in the subsurface to points at the surface (no physical receiver is required at the virtual location). We extend the idea of these equations to retrieve the Green’s function between any two points in the subsurface; i.e, between a virtual source...

We present a one-dimensional lossless scheme to compute an image of a dissipative medium from two single-sided reflection responses. One reflection response is measured at or above the top reflector of a dissipative medium and the other reflection response is computed as if measured at or above the top reflector of a medium with negative...

Recently, a novel method to redatum the wavefield in the sub-surface from a reflection response measured at the surface has gained interest for imaging primaries in the presence of strong internal multiples. A prerequisite for the algorithm is an accurate and correct estimate of the direct-wave Green's function. However, usually we use an...

We present an interferometric interpretation of the iterative Marchenko scheme including both free-surface multiples and internal multiples. Cross-correlations are used to illustrate the combination of causal and acausal events that are essential for the process of multiple removal. The first 4 steps in the scheme are discussed in detail, where...

Recent work on autofocusing with the Marchenko equation has shown how the Green's function for a virtual source in the subsurface can be obtained from reflection data. The response to the virtual source is the Green's function from the location of the virtual source to the surface. The Green's function is retrieved using only the reflection...
