Method for enhancing the resolution of a seismic image
Abstract:
A method for enhancing a physical parameter map in a zone of a seismic image. The dip of points of the image is obtained. For one of these points, called second point, a correction factor of a physical parameter is obtained with a residual move-out algorithm from a common image gather. A first point is selected on a line substantially perpendicular to the dip at the second point. The selection involves at least one parameter among whether the difference between the dip at the second point and the dip at the first point is below a first preset value; and the spacing between the first and the second point is below a second preset value. An inversion algorithm gives a corrected interval value of the physical parameter to update the physical parameter map.
