Using the 3D DAS-VSP data, accurate time-depth relationship, formation velocity, deconvolution operator, spherical diffusion compensation factor, absorption attenuation factor, anisotropy parameters and high-resolution structural imaging around the wellbore can be obtained. These parameters can be used to significantly enhance the surface 3D seismic data processing. This paper describes the 3D DAS-VSP data acquired by a downhole armoured optical cable simultaneously with an OBN data acquisition project in East China Sea, and the results of 3D DAS-VSP data imaging processing. The usual 3D VSP data imaging processing steps include: observation system definition, preprocessing, first arrival picking, static correction, amplitude compensation, deconvolution, wavefield separation, velocity analysis and imaging. Based on the characteristics of offshore 3D VSP downgoing multiples, the offshore 3D VSP downgoing multiple imaging technique has been innovatively developed. This greatly expands the 3D DAS-VSP imaging range and improves the overall 3D DAS-VSP imaging quality. The 3D DAS-VSP downgoing multiple reflection wave imaging shows significant imaging quality improvement in comparison with the vintage 3D OBC data imaging. The detailed structure, tracing of the reservoir and formation tops becomes easier and less ambiguous using both new OBN data imaging and 3D DAS-VSP data imaging when compared with the vintage 3D OBC data imaging., UL https://www.earthdoc.org/content/journals/10.3997/1365-2397.fb2022073
