Multi-Azimuth Streamer Acquisition—Initial Data Analysis

A thin but complex layer of partially eroded anhydrite and<br>other facies lie at a depth of around 3km across large areas of<br>the Nile Delta in the Mediterranean. Wavefield distortion,<br>attenuation and the generation of complex multiple diffraction<br>noise cause the quality of the underlying seismic image to be<br>highly variable. Multi-azimuth (MAZ) seismic can help<br>resolve these issues and improve the deep pre-Messinian<br>image.
