Abstract:
A method for processing seismic data. The method includes receiving the seismic data acquired at two or more sensors on a towed marine survey and regularizing the received seismic data into a spatial domain. After regularizing the seismic data, the method includes classifying the regularized seismic data below and equal to a predetermined frequency as low-frequency seismic data. The method then calculates a set of low-frequency Green's functions using interferometry on the low-frequency seismic data described above. The method then processes high-frequency seismic data of the seismic data to create a set of high-frequency Green's functions at one or more source locations of the towed marine survey. After creating the set of high-frequency Green's functions, the method merges the set of low-frequency Green's functions and the set of high-frequency Green's functions to create a set of broad-band Green's functions at the source locations.
