Time Lapse Seismic Data Selection for Acquisition and Processing by Fresnel Zone Estimation

P667 TIME LAPSE SEISMIC DATA SELECTION FOR ACQUISITION AND PROCESSING BY FRESNEL ZONE ESTIMATION P.L.A. WINTHAEGEN 1 J.F.B. BOLTE 2 and D.J. VERSCHUUR 2 Summary 1 For selecting data to image a specific part of the subsurface a methodology for determining the Fresnel zone at the surface (zone of influence) is proposed. This methodology is based on the Common Focal Point matrix and is fully data-driven by using 2D or 3D seismic data. By applying this method not only the contributing traces for processing are selected but also the source and receiver positions needed for acquisition. The presented methodology can
