Measuring And Modifying Directionality Of Seismic Interferometry Data

View page
US Patent:
8199610, Jun 12, 2012
Filed:
Nov 22, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/952060
Inventors:
Christof Stork - Denver CO, US
International Classification:
G01V 1/00
US Classification:
367 38
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for replacing the individual receivers used with a seismic interferometry process with an array of seismic receivers and then manipulating the array data in order to measure and modify the typical non-uniform directionality function of the background seismic energy. The non-uniform directionality function is a significant cause of noise with seismic interferometry. Furthermore, the array of receivers may be used to significantly enhance the preferred reflection energy and damp undesirable near surface energy. The directionality function may be modified by using an array of receivers for the virtual source location of seismic interferometry to measure the non-uniform directionality function, generating multiplication factors, and applying the multiplication factors to convert the measured directionality function into a desired directionality function.

US Patent:
20130170317, Jul 4, 2013
Filed:
Dec 30, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/341424
Inventors:
Christof Stork - Denver CO, US
Assignee:
LANDMARK GRAPHICS CORPORATION - Houston TX
International Classification:
G01V 1/28
US Classification:
367 43, 367 56, 367 72, 367 68
Abstract:
A seismic exploration system includes a survey area defined by a perimeter and including a first plurality of sub-areas and a second plurality of sub-areas adjacent the first plurality of sub-areas; two or more seismic energy sources installed within the perimeter of the seismic survey area; a first plurality of groups of seismic energy receivers installed in the first plurality of sub-areas, each of the groups of seismic energy receivers in the first plurality of groups including two or more seismic energy receivers per wavelength of seismic energy generated by the two or more seismic energy sources; and a second plurality of groups of seismic energy receivers installed in the second plurality of sub-areas, each of the groups of seismic energy receivers in the second plurality of groups including less than two seismic energy receivers per wavelength of seismic energy generated by the two or more seismic energy sources.

Noise Removal In Non-Uniformly Spaced Seismic Receiver Arrays

View page
US Patent:
20160109595, Apr 21, 2016
Filed:
Oct 20, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/887948
Inventors:
- Houston TX, US
CHRISTOF STORK - Denver CO, US
International Classification:
G01V 1/36
G01V 1/32
G01V 1/00
Abstract:
Embodiments of non-uniformly spaced seismic receiver arrays and associated noise removal techniques are disclosed. In one embodiment of a method of seismic data acquisition, a plurality of seismic receivers may be positioned in an array having a plurality of regions, each region in the array having a respective average spacing between seismic receivers, with the average spacing in a second region of the plurality of regions being greater than the average spacing in a first region of the plurality of regions that is adjacent to the second region. Seismic data may be acquired utilizing the plurality of seismic receivers, and noise may be removed therefrom.

Seismic Imaging Systems And Methods Employing Correlation-Based Stacking

View page
US Patent:
20140293740, Oct 2, 2014
Filed:
Nov 7, 2011
Appl. No.:
14/356479
Inventors:
Stefan M. Compton - Littleton CO, US
Christof Stork - Denver CO, US
Assignee:
LANDMARK GRAPHICS CORPORATION - Houston TX
International Classification:
G01V 1/34
US Classification:
367 11, 367 7
Abstract:
Disclosed systems and methods provide enhanced seismic images through the use of partial image stacking weights that are based on the resemblance between the local partial image and a reference image. At least some method embodiments include obtaining partial images of a survey region and stacking the partial images to produce a reference image. The partial images are then recombined to form an enhanced image, wherein the recombining includes: measuring at each point the reference image's similitude with each of the partial images; and determining at each point an enhanced image value from a weighted combination of corresponding values in the partial images, the weighted combination using weights derived from the reference images' similitude at that point to each partial image.
