Diffraction Imaging of the Zhao Dong Field, Bohai Bay, China

We provide an overview of integrated pre-stack depth migration and diffraction imaging for the Zhao Dong field, Bohai Bay, China. This field is highly compartmentalized by a complex faulting. The objective of the diffraction imaging is to better define these faults. Tools to facilitate interpretation include displays with pre-stack depth migration and diffraction images overlain in different colour scales, the combination of pre-stack depth migration and diffraction images into a single volume and a diffraction image obtained with a spatially varying taper calibrated to local reflectivity.
