PRESTACK EGS MIGRATION METHOD FOR SEISMIC WAVE MULTI-COMPONENT DATA

摘要

The present invention relates to a one-way wave equation prestack depth migration method using an elastic generalized-screen (EGS) wave propagator capable of efficiently expressing the movement of an elastic wave passing through a mutual mode conversion between a P-wave and an S-wave while propagating boundary surfaces of an underground medium, by expanding, to an elastic wave equation, a conventional scalar generalized-screen (SGS) technique capable of quickly calculating the propagation of a wave in a medium in which there is a horizontal speed change, and according to the present invention, provided is a prestack EGS migration method for seismic wave multi-component data, which: can calculate a wave field with higher accuracy in a medium having a complex structure by expanding up to a second term of a Taylor series expansion of a vertical slowness term of a propagator; includes a mode separation operator in the propagator so as to directly use a shot gather as a migration input, without the need to separate multi-component data into a P-wave and an S-wave, enabling P-wave and S-wave image sections to be generated; and is configured to improve the quality of an S-wave migration image by correcting a polarity conversion in a wave number-frequency domain prior to S-wave imaging.
