摘要： The presently disclosed technique includes a method for use in a marine survey comprising randomizing the distribution of receivers and sources during a coil shoot acquisition. The randomizing can be implemented in a number of ways. For example, in one embodiment, randomizing the distribution includes randomizing the positions of the circle centers defining the sail lines. This may be implemented by, for example, distributing the same number of circle centers as would be used in a non-random sampling in a uniform random distribution. In another embodiment, randomizing the distribution includes permitting the streamers in which the receivers are allowed to drift while controlling crossline streamer separation. Other embodiments may combine these approaches or utilize still other approaches.

摘要： A method for acquiring seismic data. The method may include towing one or more seismic streamers in the water, towing a first air gun array and a second air gun array in the water at a first depth, and towing a third air gun array and a fourth air gun array in the water at a second depth greater than the first depth. While towing the air gun arrays, the first and second air gun arrays and the third and fourth air gun arrays may be separated by a cross line distance that depends on a separation between the seismic streamers. The method may also include firing seismic energy, by the first, second, third and fourth air gun arrays, through the water into the earth. After firing the seismic energy, the method may record seismic signals reflected from strata in the earth beneath the water.

摘要： A method is described that attenuates reverberations in ocean bottom cable data used to generate a seismic profile. First, a seismic wave is generated and recorded by pressure and particle velocity sensor pairs. Adding the product of the pressure data times the absolute value of the velocity data and the product of the velocity data times the absolute value of the pressure data eliminates reverberations, leaving a combined signal that is a function of only the primary wave response signal. Dividing this combined signal by the number 2 and a sensitivity scaling factor, and then taking the square root of the result produces the magnitude of the primary signal. Replacing the positive/negative sign of the combined signal that existed before taking the absolute value provides the proper polarity. The data are then incorporated into a seismic profile.

摘要： Systems and methods for determining object location may include a memory and a processor. The processor may be configured to collect seismic data and geophysical data to determine object location. The processor may be configured to determine one or more seismic attributes associated with a plurality types of noises based on the seismic data and the geophysical data using one or more machine learning algorithms. The processor may be configured to eliminate unwanted noises from noise classifications based on the one or more seismic attributes. The processor may be configured to predict the object location by comparing time and velocity data of the object with recorded timing and velocity data. The processor may be configured to validate the object location by comparing the determined noise with image data. The systems and methods may be used in, for example, detecting missing planes such as Malaysian Airlines Flight 370.
