The Influence of Deconvolution on Surface-Related Multiple Elimination Filtering

Abstract

Using the methods of deconvolution it was possible to reach the objective of delimiting the reflections obtained by the seismogram, improving the temporal resolution. The following deconvolutions were used: Wiener deconvolution (spike), adaptive deconvolution, and Lp norm deconvolution. Among the deconvolutions used, it was established which one showed the best result after application of the SRME filtering method in the seismic flow, where the effects of the surface multiple should be smoothed in the marine data of the Jequitinhonha Basin, making it possible to obtain a better seismic section closer to the subsurface geological reality of the study area.
