3D surface-wave estimation and separation using a closed-loop approach

Surface waves in seismic data are often dominant in a land or shallow-water environment. Separating them from primaries is of great importance either for removing them as noise for reservoir imaging and characterization or for extracting them as signal for near-surface characterization. However, their complex properties make the surface-wave...

Surface-wave separation and its impact on seismic survey design

Surface waves in seismic data are often dominant and mask primaries in land or shallow-water environments. Separating them from the primaries is of great importance either for removing them as noise for reservoir imaging and characterization, or for considering them as signal for near-surface characterization. However, their complex properties,...

Dispersive multi-modal mud-roll elimination using feedback-loop approach

In a shallow water environment, mud-rolls are often dominant and appear as a prevailing coherent noise in OBC seismic data. Their complex properties make the noise elimination notably challenging in seismic processing. To address these challenges, we propose a dispersive multimodal mud-roll elimination method using a feedback-loop approach with...
