Abstract:
Inversion for marine seismic imaging of a full reflected wavefield can include generating an image of a subsurface formation by full wavefield migrating a recorded seismic wavefield and generating numerically modeled data using the image. A mismatch between the numerically modeled data and the seismic wavefield can be determined. Responsive to determining that the mismatch exceeds an inversion match threshold, the image can be updated using the mismatch between the numerically modeled data and the seismic wavefield.
