METHOD OF PROCESSING DATA OBTAINED FROM SEISMIC PROSPECTING

摘要

A method of calculating a seismic noise image for a formation comprises the steps of : a) obtaining data representing a multicomponent seismic signal from at least one receiver, in response to transmitting seismic waves into the formation; b) obtaining a velocity model of the earth formation; c) determining a plurality of wave field components; d) obtaining a set of second components; e) obtaining, for each subsurface point, at least two products, each product comprising the product of a selected wave field component and a different second component; and f) and generating a noise image by calculating at least one difference between different products for at least one image point.
