Abstract

Spatial variations in the transmission properties of the overburden cause seismic amplitude distortions on deeper horizons and hence pose problems to the AVO analysis. One of the common causes of these transmission anomalies is gas within shallow sediment. This induces anomalous amplitude decay in zones beneath the gas anomaly, often making the identification and interpretation of deeper reflectors difficult. This in turn affects the ability to accurately predict reservoir properties. Thus, there is a need to compensate the amplitude loss caused by this kind of transmission anomalies.
