9 results about "Passive seismic" patented technology

Passive seismic is the detection of natural low frequency earth movements, usually with the purpose of discerning geological structure and locate underground oil, gas, or other resources. Usually the data listening is done in multiple measurement points that are separated by several hundred meters, over periods of several hours to several days, using portable seismometers. The conclusions about the geological structure are based on the spectral analysis or on the mathematical reconstruction of the propagation and possible sources of the observed seismic waves. If the latter is planned, data are usually acquired in multiple (in the ideal case - all) points simultaneously, using so called synchronized lines. Reliability of the time reverse modelling can be further increased using results of reflection seismology about the distribution of the sound speed in the underground volume.

A joint detection method based on seismic reflection and vehicle noise

ActiveCN115373023BSustainable transportationSeismic signal processingSeismic interferometryJoint imaging
The present invention discloses a joint detection method based on seismic reflection and vehicle noise. The present invention obtains active and passive seismic records in a study area through measurement. Based on the seismic interferometry method, the passive seismic records are subjected to mutual interference processing, offset stacking, and normalization processing to obtain virtual source shot gather records. The causal and non-causal parts of the virtual source shot gather records are screened based on a two-way virtual source shot gather record signal-to-noise ratio screening method to obtain high-signal-to-noise ratio passive surface wave records in the study area. Dispersion analysis is performed on the active and passive surface wave records, and the high-frequency dispersion curve extracted from the active source record is integrated with the low-frequency dispersion curve extracted from the passive source to obtain a broadband dispersion curve. The present invention combines active and passive surface wave analysis, utilizing surface wave information in seismic reflection waves and traffic noise to effectively acquire shallow surface structural features, laying the foundation for joint imaging of shallow surface velocity structures in thick coverage areas.

A method for enhancing virtual shot signals from a few seismic sources based on convolutional neural networks.

This invention relates to a method for enhancing virtual shot signals from a small number of seismic sources based on a convolutional neural network (CNN). The CNN identifies and suppresses coherent noise and spurious phase axes in seismic data. Virtual shot records with a small number of passive seismic sources are used as training data, while those with a larger number of sources are used as training labels. The characteristics of the effective signal are learned from these labels to suppress coherent noise and spurious phase axes, and to restore waveforms in areas of discontinuity. For virtual shot records with uneven source distribution, those with a wider distribution are used as labels. In this case, the network's task is not only to suppress coherent noise and spurious phase axes and restore waveform continuity and extension, but also to restore intersecting linear phase axes to hyperbolic phase axes. This reduces the impact of passive source acquisition on seismic records, ultimately achieving better results and improving the applicability of passive source seismic exploration.
