Abstract
SUMMARY Surface-related multiples in Ocean Bottom Cable (OBC) data cannot be removed by directly applying standard SRME, which requires sources and receivers that are surface consistent. The ray paths needed for a complete surface-multiple prediction can be achieved by combining streamer and OBC data. The combination allows fully data driven SRME to be extended to OBC data. However, streamer data is not always available. In this paper, we demonstrate that the required data to predict surface-related multiples in OBC data can be constructed using inter-source and inter-receiver interferometry, and the multiples can then be predicted similarly as in SRME. The work flow does not require knowing any subsurface information.
