Abstract

All seismic data, whether 2D, 3D, post-stack or pre-stack, contains noise. Typically, this noise is comprised of both coherent and random components. Coherent noise presents itself as regular patterns in the seismic data. It may appear to be random or coherent depending on the orientation of the slice on which it is being observed. For example, coherent noise associated with acquisition may appear random on vertical slices through the volume, with its coherent nature becoming apparent on horizontal slices through the volume.
