This investigation was undertaken to evaluate the processing flows needed to obtain vertical and radial post-stack migrated seismic sections from a heavy oil reservoir in Eastern Alberta. The radial filter was found to successfully attenuate shot-generated linear noise on both the vertical and radial components. Gabor deconvolution was found to successfully boost signal to noise in low fold areas of the data. The depth-variant stack has shown to have greater frequency in the near surface data compared to the CCP stack for the radial component.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
