Effect of multiple, intercalated sediments on seismic data

Effect of multiple, intercalated sediments on seismic data
Effect of multiple, intercalated sediments on seismic data
Subsurface imaging using conventional seismic reflection techniques is challenging in areas where high-velocity rocks such as basalts are underlain by low-velocity rocks. The seismic image quality worsens in the presence of intercalated sediments within the basaltic rocks. This article presents an example showing possible complications expected in regions characterized by basalt flows. It further attempts to examine the applicability of using locally converted seismic waves to image the basalt layer as well as structures underneath them.

Abstract

Subsurface imaging using conventional seismic reflection techniques is challenging in areas where high-velocity rocks such as basalts are underlain by low-velocity rocks. The seismic image quality worsens in the presence of intercalated sediments within the basaltic rocks. This article presents an example showing possible complications expected in regions characterized by basalt flows. It further attempts to examine the applicability of using locally converted seismic waves to image the basalt layer as well as structures underneath them.
