Abstract
Provided is a method for swell effect and mis-tie correction in high-resolution marine seismic data using multi-beam echo sounder data, and more particularly, a method for swell effect and mis-tie correction in high-resolution marine seismic data using multi-beam echo sounder data capable of acquiring the high-resolution marine seismic data having the swell effect and the mis-tie effectively corrected by using the multi-beam echo sounder data including water depth data of a sea-bottom having high precision.
Claims6
A method for correcting a swell effect and an mis-tie at the intersection point of marine seismic data using multi-beam echo sounder data measured by a multi-beam sounder, comprising:
- a) receiving the multi-beam echo sounder data;
- b) extracting water depth values corresponding to the same positions(latitude and longitude coordinate points) as shot points at the seismic data in the multi-beam echo sounder data;
- c) correcting the swell effect and the mis-tie at the coordinate points of the seismic data by reflecting the water depth values;
- and
- d) deriving the marine seismic data at which the swell effect and the mis-tie are corrected by performing the steps b and c on all the coordinate points at the seismic data.
