Abstract:
Amplitude-preserving angle gathers are ideal inputs for seismic prestack inversion. However, due to the limitation of computational efficiency, generating subsurface azimuth-reflection angle gathers from 3-D seismic imaging is still a very difficult task. In this article, we propose a new method to generate azimuth-reflection angle gathers from 3-D reverse time migration (RTM). The proposed method approximately reconstructs the source wavefield using high-dimensional wavelets and the excitation information. After using directional vectors to calculate the subsurface observation angles and applying the cross correlation imaging condition, we can generate azimuth-reflection angle gathers by angle binning. Without storing source wavefields or reconstructing source wavefields using boundary conditions, the proposed method has high computational efficiency. Numerical experiments on a synthetic model and a real marine seismic dataset demonstrate that compared with the excitation amplitude imaging condition, the proposed method can generate azimuth-reflection angle gathers with continuous complete events and high signal-to-noise ratio. The image quality and resolution of angle gathers are significantly improved. At the same time, the computational complexity does not increase much.
