Inverse scattering internal multiple attenuation: Results from complex synthetic and field data examples

Abstract

Seismic prospecting can be viewed as a process of extracting subsurface information from seismic measurements. Today’s interpretation and inversion technologies demand sophisticated pre-stack amplitudepreserving processing technologies that are effective in complex geologic environments. For example, the advent and increased use AVO require advanced multiple suppression technology in seismically challenging areas where conventional ‘tried and true’ methods are no longer adequate.
