  VSFusion VS3 System - Practical 3D VSP Processing
 

VSFusion has designed and integrated several component systems into the VS3SM 3D VSP processing system to provide a superior image and rapid 3D VSP survey turnaround.

The VS3 system focuses on:
  • Detailed 3D pre-survey modeling
  • Efficient and accurate data pre-processing
  • Optimizing the velocity model for more accurate imaging
  • Anisotropic Wave Equation Migration and 3-C-3D Vector migration
  • Flexible 3D image presentation

Pre-Survey Design

The first priority in any 3D VSP project is to ensure that the objective will be met by the acquisition design. To accomplish this task, an accurate and flexible modeling tool must be used to design the VSP survey geometry. The VSFusion VS3 system utilizes the GeoTomo LLC VECON system. VECON is a built-for-purpose 2D/3D VSP modeling system designed by VSFusion geophysicists.
  • The 3D model can be quickly built using all types of available geologic and geophysical support data.
  • Source and receiver geometry configurations are easily specified and modified.

VSP Pre-Processing

Geocluster™ is the industry-leading comprehensive seismic processing system designed and owned by CGGVeritas. It contains hundreds of seismic processing modules designed for 2D and 3D seismic processing. In addition to these modules, Geocluster contains a full suite of borehole seismic-specific processing modules. Geocluster utilizes the speed of Linux PC clusters to quickly run the most demanding seismic processing functions. A full suite of analytical tools are also available in Geocluster to extract the information inherent within a 3D VSP, such as travel time maps, rock property map sand inversion. Having access to CGGVeritas’s extensive experience in 3D seismic processing has allowed VSFusion to set up an extensive library of job-flow templates. This allows us to apply the proper processes to the data and easily manage large volumes of data. This drastically cuts the cycle time from raw data to reflection data ready for imaging.
