Abstract:
A method of pre-stack two-dimension-like transformation of three-dimensional seismic record is accomplished by the following steps: acquiring 3D seismic data, and arranging them according to a shot gather; calculating the offsets of all the receiver points from the first receiver line of the first shot; making a straight line (L2′) which connects the shot point (S) and the receiver point (R1) of the smallest offset as the transformed coordinate axis, and making the shot point (S) as the center, drawing circles whose radii are the offsets (offseti) of each receiver point, then rotating each receiver point to the straight line (L2′), thereby accomplishing the two-dimension-like transformation of all the receiver lines of the shot, and getting three-dimensional seismic data graph with high precision; and then making the processing of the noise elimination and static correction on the three-dimensional seismic record using conventional technique.
Abstract:
A shorter spatial wavelength static correction method for exploration seismic data using first arrivals according to the invention includes the steps of: based on a quadratic curve fitting to the first arrivals, which are picked up from seismic wave records of receiver gathers after the field statics, obtaining the difference &Dgr;i,j between the observed first arrival time tij of the receiver point j with respect to the shot point i and the corresponding time value of the fitted quadratic curve; and forming the original matrix &Dgr; having m×n elements &Dgr;i,j, where n is the total number of shot points and m is the total number of receiver points of the line; substituting the elements of each row by the difference between the value of each element and the row average; and substituting the elements of each column by the difference between the value of each element and the column average; repeating the iteration until less than a predetermined error; the sum of the averages of the ith row for all iterations and the sum of the averages of the ith column for all iterations are the static correction value at the ith shot point and the static at the jth receiver point respectively. Said method is applicable to 3-D seismic survey by mean of using a formula of rij={square root over (&Dgr;xij2+&Dgr;yij2)} to transform 3-D seismic data into 2-D data, so that the 3-D seismic data processing is as simple as that of 2-D data.
