Opportunities of Pro (Parameter Expansion of Seismic Reflections) for Dislocated Inhomogeneous Media

Abstract

The relevance of this work is determined by the needs of the industry in the searching for additional methods and tools for inversion. Speaking about the processing of seismic data, it should be noted that generally accepted methods continue to be widely used: the CMP method, prestack time and depth Kirchhoff migration, but the growing needs of the industry require the use of other alternative methods for wider understanding of the geological environment and better interpretation of data during reservoir forecasts; in addition, Paleozoic deposits are of special interest. The report focuses on the migration of PRO (Parameter expanding of seismic reflections), which continues the PRO method. The method uses another approach to processing seismic data, which makes it possible to obtain seismic sections and distribution of seismic velocities in the medium. Case sudies and methodological recommendations are given.
