System and method for clustering arrivals of seismic energy to enhance subsurface imaging

摘要

Seismic data acquired at or near a geologic volume of interest is processed. This may include forming an image of the geologic volume of interest from the seismic data. The seismic data may be processed by aggregating energy arrivals to reduce the number of imaging processes that must be performed to determine an image of the geologic volume of interest. This aggregation may be based on groupings of energy arrivals referred to herein as clusters.
