A report at the conference “Digital Technologies in Hydrocarbon Production: Modern Challenges”

Seismotech, Ltd. will present a report at the scientific and technical conference “Digital Technologies in Hydrocarbon Production: Modern Challenges” which will take place on 01-04 October, 2024 in Ufa. The organizer of the conference - Rosneft Oil Company. PJSC.

Within the conference “Digital Technologies in Hydrocarbon Production: Modern Challenges” we are pleased to invite you to attend the report:

Analysis of parameters and сorrection of frequency-dependent absorption effects in seismic data processing.

The speaker: Anisimov Ruslan, Leading Software Developer, Seismotech Ltd.

The authors are: Anisimov Ruslan, Finikov Dmitry, Ovchinnikov Kirill, Shalashnikov Andrey

Analysis of frequency-dependent absorption effects, parameterization of these effects during processing, study of wave attenuation parameters and their interpretation have long been recognized as the most important problems of seismic exploration. A great number of articles and monographs have been devoted to these questions. However, many theoretical and applied issues remain unresolved.

The consideration of frequency-dependent absorption can be split into two stages: analysis of absorption parameters and distortion correction issues, elimination of distortions caused by absorption from seismic data.

The report briefly introduces the problem statement, discusses different types of Quality factor (Q) parameter representation, and presents algorithms for analyzing the Q-efficient (Qeff) parameter, Q-tomography, and corresponding seismic data correction.
