Land Multiple Elimination Applicable for Low-Relief Structures

P160 LAND MULTIPLE ELIMINATION APPLICABLE FOR LOW-RELIEF STRUCTURES Summary 1 Estimation of multiple energy and subsequent elimination is probably one of the most important aspects of modern seismic data processing. In particular in areas with little or no velocity discrimination between primaries and multiples conventional approaches fail and sophisticated techniques based on wave theoretical principles are usually sought. These techniques have been successfully applied in marine datasets for both surface-related and internal multiples. For land data however the application of wave equation based algorithms for multiple attenuation is rather limited. In this paper we employ the iterative multiple removal method
