IDENTIFYING GEOLOGIC FEATURES IN A SUBTERRANEAN FORMATION USING A POST-STACK SEISMIC DIFFRACTION IMAGING CONDITION

摘要

A system for seismic imaging of a subterranean geological formation, the system includes a receiver configured to obtain seismic data comprising a data volume representing a post-stacked image. The system includes a filtering module configured to: apply frequency-wavenumber (F-K) filter to the data volume extract a negative-dip structure image and apply the frequency-wavenumber (F-K) filter to the data volume extract a positive-dip structure image. The system includes a diffraction rendering module configured to: multiply the positive-dip structure image with the negative-dip structure image and generate a diffraction-enhanced seismic image representing a geological formation of the data volume.
