Agip Division Via dell’Unione Europea 3 20097 San Donato Milanese MI Italy Abstract Summary The imaging of sedimentary sequences laying beneath strongly absorbing formations such as the Faeroe Basin Basalt Body can be improved by processing seismic data using a non conventional approach. P-S converted waves generated at the interface between formations with strong velocity difference maintain a higher content of energy with respect to the standard P transmitted waves. A modelling procedure based on synthetic data
