Abstract

Various types of noise can obscure reflections and refractions on deep crustal seismic data. This study presents a simple but elegant approach to true wavefield processing where noise reduction and trace interpolations are applied implicitly during depth extrapolation. No velocity and source/receiver information is required and the proposed approach can be combined with conventional or available processing algorithms. Prestack processing is successfully applied to a complicated OBS data set, demonstrating an improvement in noise reduction and effective trace interpolation.
