Marine vibroseis motion correction

A computer system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory comprising program instructions executable by the processor to:
• receive the seismic data acquired at one or more receivers due to one or more marine vibroseis sources that emit one or more vibroseis sweeps using a slip-sweep technique;
• apply a receiver motion correction algorithm to the seismic data to generate receiver motion corrected seismic data;
• transform the receiver motion corrected seismic data into a temporal Fourier domain to generate seismic data as a function of frequency;
• reconstruct the transformed seismic data as a function of frequency to correct for one or more motions of the one or more marine vibroseis sources;
• transform the reconstructed seismic data to a time domain;
• and
• generate a seismic image of a subsurface of the Earth based on the transformed reconstructed seismic data.

A computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:

• receive the seismic data acquired at one or more receivers due to one or more marine vibroseis sources that emit one or more vibroseis sweeps;
• apply a receiver motion correction algorithm to the seismic data to generate receiver motion corrected seismic data;
• perform a sweep correlation on the receiver motion corrected seismic data;
• transform the sweep correlated seismic data into a temporal Fourier domain to generate seismic data as a function of frequency;
• reconstruct the seismic data as a function of frequency to correct for one or more motions of the one or more marine vibroseis sources;
• transform the reconstructed seismic data to a time domain;
• and
• generate a seismic image of a subsurface of the Earth based on the transformed reconstructed seismic data.
