Exploration seismology utilizes the seismic wavefield for prospecting oil and gas. The seismic reflection experiment consists on deploying sources and receivers in the surface of an area of interest. When the sources are activated, the receivers measure the wavefield that is reflected from...

Simultaneous-source acquisition is a seismic data acquisition technology that has become quite popular in recent years due to its economic advantages. Contrary to the conventional seismic acquisition, where one records the seismic response of only one source at a time, in simultaneous source...

Regional reflectivity analyses of the upper mantle using SS precursors and receiver functions
DownloadFall 2012
SS precursor imaging and receiver function analysis allow for a detailed investigation of mantle structure of the Earth and subduction dynamics due to their sensitivities to the sharp velocity contrasts within the mantle. By investigating the lateral depth variability of mantle seismic...

Separating Simultaneous Seismic Sources using Robust Inversion of Radon and Migration Operators
DownloadSpring 2016
The advent of high density 3D wide azimuth survey configurations has greatly increased the cost of seismic acquisition. Simultaneous source acquisition presents an opportunity to decrease costs by reducing the survey time. Source time delays are typically long enough for seismic reflection energy...
