Systems and methods are provided for directional de-noising on seismic data recorded byseismic receivers. A method includes: receiving a seismic dataset, wherein the seismic dataset includes a model dataset and an input dataset to filter; decomposing the model dataset into a plurality of model directions, identifying which of the model directions to keep; and mapping the input dataset along the identified model directions resulting in a filtered output.

Disclosed are methods of marine 3D seismic data acquisition that do not require compensation for winds and currents.

Methods and systems to remove source wavefield and source ghost effects from marine seismic data are described. The methods and systems may be used to substantially remove source wavefield and source ghost effects from marine seismic data collected in rough weather conditions.

Aspects of the disclosure provide a system for seismic sample data acquisition and processing. The system includes an acquisition system configured to acquire seismic sample data using compressive sensing. The acquisition system includes a plurality of receivers each configured to randomly sample a seismic signal to generate seismic sample data, and a data collection system configured to control sampling operations of the plurality of receivers, and receive and store the generated seismic sample data.

A method for angle-domain common image gather (ADCIG) of a subsurface formation includes the step of converting seismic incident waves and seismic scattered waves at each of a number of image locations from time domain to frequency domain using Fourier transform. At each image location, the seismic waves in the frequency domain are decomposed into a number of local plane waves. Applying a cross-correlating imaging condition amongst the local plane waves to obtain a partial image at each image location. The plurality of partial images are then sorted into the angle domain.

Disclosed are methods of marine 3D seismic data acquisition that do not require compensation for winds and currents.

Methods and systems of generating seismic images from primaries and multiples are described. Methods separate pressure data into up-going pressure data and down-going pressure data from pressure data and vertical velocity data. Irregularly spaced receiver coordinates of the down-going and up-going pressure data are regularized to grid points of a migration grid and interpolation is used to fill in down-going and up-going pressure data at grid points of the migration grid. A seismic image is calculated at grid points of the migration grid based on the interpolated and regularized down-going pressure data and the interpolated and regularized up-going pressure data. The seismic images are high-resolution, have lower signal-to-noise ratio than seismic images generated by other methods, and have reduced acquisition artifacts and crosstalk effects.
