Abstract

Summary

Recently, new ideas on randomized sampling for time-lapse seismic acquisition have been proposed to address some of the challenges of replicating time-lapse surveys. These ideas, which stem from distributed compressed sensing (DCS) led to the birth of a joint recovery model (JRM) for processing time-lapse data (noise-free) acquired from non-replicated acquisition geometries. However, when the earth does not change—i.e. no time-lapse—the recovered vintages from two non-replicated surveys should show high repeatability measured in terms of normalized RMS, which is a standard metric for quantifying time-lapse data repeatability. Under this assumption of no time-lapse change, we demonstrate improved repeatability (with JRM) of the recovered data from non-replicated random samplings, first with noisy data and secondly in situations where there are calibration errors i.e., where the acquisition parameters such as source/receiver coordinates are not precise.
