Abstract
P236 ACQUISITION GEOMETRY ANALYSIS BY FOCAL BEAMS IN 3D COMPLEX MEDIA E.J. VAN VELDHUIZEN and G. BLACQUIÈRE Delft University of Technology Acoustic Imaging and Sound Control PO Box 5046 NL-2600 GA The Netherlands Abstract 1 Complex structures in the subsurface like salt bodies literally form obstacles in seismic processing. Proper subsalt imaging is one of the present challenges in geophysics. The quality of a seismic image is highly dependent on the acquisition geometry. In this paper the performance of an orthogonal land geometry is examined for a 3D complex medium. For that purpose focal beam analysis is used. This method
