Seismic processing
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003314
The series of computational steps applied to raw seismic data to enhance the signal-to-noise ratio and produce an accurate image of the subsurface. This involves filtering, stacking, migration, and other algorithms to remove unwanted noise and correctly position reflections. The goal is to transform the recorded seismic waves into a clear representation of geological structures.
