Abstract

For imaging complex subsurface structures such as salt dome, faults, thrust belt, and folds, seismic prestack reverse-time migration in depth domain is widely used, which is performed by the cross-correlation of shot-domain wavefield extrapolation with receiver-domain wavefield extrapolation. We apply the prestack reverse-time migration, which had been developed at KIGAM, to the seismic field data set of Block 5 in Jeju basin of Korea continental shelf in order to improve subsurface syncline stratigraphy image of the deep structures under the shot point 8km at the surface. We performed basic data processing for improving S/N ratio in the shot gathers, and constructed a velocity model from stack velocity which was calculated by the iterative velocity spectrum. The syncline structure of the stack image appears as disconnected interfaces due to the diffractions, but the result of the prestack migration shows that the syncline image is improved as seismic energy is concentrated on the geological interfaces.

탄성파 심도영역 중합전 역시간 구조보정은 음원영역 파동외삽과 수진기영역 파동외삽의 상호상관으로 지층구조를 영상화하는 방법으로 암염돔 하부, 단층, 습곡, 심한 경사층 등 복잡한 층서구조를 영상화하는데 주로 이용된다. 여기에서는 한국지질자원연구원에서 개발된 중합전 심도영역 역시간 구조보정 기술을 국내 대륙붕 제주분지 제 5광구 탄성파 현장자료에 적용하여 음원번호 1280번 하부에 존재하는 향사 층서구조 영상을 향상시키고자 하였다. 음원모음 신호음을 향상시키기 위해 기본 자료처리를 실시하였고, 반복적으로 속도스펙트럼을 계산하는 방법으로 중합속도를 결정하여 속도모델을 구축하였다. 중합단면도상에 나타나는 향사구조는 산란파 영향으로 지층경계면의 연속성이 떨어져 보이지만 구조보정 적용 결과 탄성파 반사 에너지가 집중된 곳에서 향사구조 영상이 향상된 심도영역 지층단면도를 구할 수 있었다.
