Sifat anisotropi pada suatu medium menyebabkan adanya perbedaan kecepatan rambat gelombang berdasarkan arah rambatnya. Medium bersifat transvere isotropy memiliki nilai kecepatan yang berbeda ke arah lateral dan vertikal. Medium bersifat vertical transverse isotropy (VTI) memiliki kecepatan lateral yang lebih besar daripada kecepatan vertikal. Perbedaan ini menyebabkan timbulnya efek hockey stick, terutama pada offset jauh. Karena informasi pada offset jauh amat penting, maka efek ini perlu dikoreksi terlebih dahulu sebelum melanjutkan ke tahapan pemrosesan data selanjutnya. Untuk mendapat pemahaman yang lebih baik, maka dibuat model sintetik VTI yang diproses menggunakan normal moveout (NMO), dip moveout (DMO) dan common reflection surface (CRS). Untuk menghilangkan efek dipping dan agar didapatkan hasil velocity analysis yang baik, DMO dan CRS dilakukan. Pilihan ini atas pertimbangan bahwa metode DMO dapat menghilangkan sifat dip- dependent pada gather seismik, dan analisis kecepatan paling mudah dilakukan pada metode CRS. Hasil perbandingan metode DMO dan CRS menunjukkan bahwa CRS menunjukkan S/N ratio yang lebih baik dan memiliki ketidakpastian yang lebih kecil dalam analisis kecepatan yang berpengaruh langsung dalam estimasi parameter koreksi anisotropi. Nilai parameter koreksi anisotropi diestimasi pada CDP yang ditentukan menggunakan pendekatan nonhyperbolic moveout. Nilai rata-rata yang diperoleh pada masing-masing metode menunjukkan hasil yang berbeda. Nilai ηeff yang paling mendekati nilai η model adalah pada metode DMO dan CRS.

Abstract The seismic far-offset data plays important role in seismic subsurface imaging and reservoir parameters derivation, however, it is often distorted by the hockey stick effect due to improper correction of the Vertical Transverse Isotropy (VTI) during the seismic velocity analysis. The anisotropy parameter η is needed to properly correct the VTI effect. The anisotropy parameters of ε and δ obtained from log and core measurements, can be used to estimate the η values, however, the upscaling effects due to the different frequencies of the wave sources used in the measurements must be carefully taken into account. The objective is to get better understanding on the proper uses of anisotropy parameters in the the velocity analysis of deepwater seismic gather data. To achieve the objective, the anisotropy parameters from ultrasonic core measurements and dipole sonic log were used to model the seismic CDP gathers. The upscaling effects is reflected by the big difference of measured anisotropy values, in which the core measurement value is about 40 times higher than the log measurement value. The CDP gathers modelling results show that, due to the upscaling effect, the log and core-based models show significant differences of far-offset amplitude and hockey sticks responses. The differences can be minimized by scaling-down the log anisotropy values to core anisotropy values by using equations established from core – log anisotropy values cross-plot. The study emphasizes the importances of integrating anisotropy parameters from core and log data to minimize the upscaling effect to get the best η for the VTI correction in seismic velocity analysis.

Abstract The existence of anisotropy phenomena in the subsurface will affect the image quality of seismic data. Hence a prior knowledge of the type of anisotropy is quite essential, especially when dealing with deep water targets. The preliminary result of the anisotropy of the well-based modelling in deep water exploration and development is discussed in this study. Anisotropy types are modelled for Vertical Transverse Isotropy (VTI) and Horizontal Transverse Isotropy (HTI) based on Thomsen Parameters of ε and γ. The parameters are obtained from DSI Logging paired with reference δ value for modelling. Three initial conditions are then analysed. The first assumption is isotropic, in which the P-Wave Velocity, S-Wave Velocity, and Density Log modelled at their in-situ condition. The second and third assumptions are anisotropy models that are VTI and HTI. In terms of HTI, the result shows that the model of CDP Gather in the offset domain has a weak distortion in Amplitude Variation with Azimuth (AVAz). However, another finding shows a relatively strong hockey effect in far offset, which indicates that the target level is a VTI dominated type. It is supported by the geomechanical analysis result in which vertical stress acts as the maximum principal axis while horizontal stress is close to isotropic one. To sum up, this prior anisotropy knowledge obtained based on this study could guide the efficiency guidance in exploring the deep water environment.

Seismic anisotropy is an intrinsic elastic property. Appropriate accounting of anisotropy is critical for correct and accurate positioning seismic events in reverse time migration. Although the full elastic wave equation may serve as the ultimate solution for modeling and imaging, pseudoelastic and pseudoacoustic wave equations are more preferable due to their computation efficiency and simplicity in practice. The anisotropic parameters and their relations are not arbitrary because they are constrained by the energy principle. Based on the investigation of the stability condition of the pseudoelastic wave equations, we have developed a set of explicit formulations for determining the S-wave velocity from given Thomsen’s parameters [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for vertical transverse isotropy and tilted transverse isotropy media. The estimated S-wave velocity ensures that the wave equations are stable and well-posed in the cases of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. In the case of [Formula: see text], a common situation in carbonate, a positive value of S-wave velocity is needed to avoid the wavefield instability. Comparing the stability constraints of the pseudoelastic- with the full-elastic wave equation, we conclude that the feasible range of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] was slightly larger for the pseudoelastic assumption. The success of achieving high-accuracy images and high-quality angle gathers using the proposed constraints is demonstrated in a synthetic example and a field example from Saudi Arabia.

Although in the past, in the context of stacking, traveltime moveout was only formulated in individual common-midpoint (CMP) gathers, multiparameter stacking uses normal moveout (NMO) approximations that span several neighboring CMPs. Multiparameter expressions such as the common reflection surface (CRS) or multifocusing are parameterized in terms of local slopes and curvatures of emerging wavefronts rather than effective velocities, which makes these approaches appear conceptually different from conventional velocity analysis. As a consequence, the unifying nature of multiparameter NMO is still not well-appreciated. In addition, CRS and multifocusing show distinctly different behavior in that they respond differently to the overburden heterogeneity and curvature of the target interface, and they either are or are not susceptible to moveout stretch. In our work, we seek to demystify the wavefront picture by demonstrating that the conventional and multidimensional NMO operators can conveniently be derived from the same auxiliary straight-ray geometry, either representing the optical projection or formulated in an effective replacement medium. Following the early work of de Bazelaire, we suggest a simple transformation between both domains and introduce generalized dual representations of the hyperbolic CRS, multifocusing, and the two recently introduced double-square-root expressions implicit CRS and nonhyperbolic CRS. In addition, we evaluate a generalized finite-offset NMO expression that can likewise be applied to active-source diffraction data and passive seismic events. Synthetic examples suggest unification, conveniently explain the origin of moveout stretch, and indicate that the joint use of different NMO approximations offers new insight into the character and origin of different wavefield components.
