M-OSRP 2014 Annual Report Introduction

Removing multiples and/or using multiples for image illumination

The status and a proposed strategy that recognizes real and prioritized open issues and defines and addresses challenges. The strategy being pursued by M-OSRP will provide a direct response to current open issues and daunting offshore and onshore challenges. The goal is to deliver the required step change in multiple removal capability, that’s well beyond what is currently available, anywhere in the petroleum industry.

We focus on ‘what’ to compute, providing the necessary new concepts and algorithms. We are also working closely with Tom McClure, and his IBM team, to develop the ‘how’ to compute this next generation of seismic capability. Taken together, the ‘what’ and the ‘how’ deliver increased effectiveness. In this article, we also present a few thoughts on the subject of multiples and illumination.

Multiple attenuation: strategy that addresses current challenges
A proposed plan recognizes real and prioritized open issues and defines and addresses challenges.

Removing multiples without subsurface data
Are we seriously considering treating multiples as signal?

Key points, thoughts, and communication for ALL seismic amplitude analysis

Basically, the first point is that from a direct inversion perspective a linear inverse solution needs to begin with a careful examination/determination of what data is required, in principle to directly invert for that quantity, without any linear or other approximation.
