Deconvolution in Seismic Processing

1. The document summarizes the basic concepts of seismic deconvolution, which is an inverse filtering technique used to compress the seismic wavelet and attenuate multiples. 2. Deconvolution aims to increase vertical resolution and approximately recover the earth's impulse response or reflectivity. 3. It can be applied before or after stack, and uses mathematical models of the source wavelet, noise, and Q-effect to modify the seismic trace.

Deconvolution Approaches
Decon is normally applied before stack (DBS). But it is sometimes is applied after
stack (DAS) The term deconvolution is most often applied to a type of inverse filtering.

Deconvolution Summary

If decon were completely successful in


compressing the wavelet components and
attenuating multiples it would leave only
the reflectivity of the earth on the seismic
trace.

In so doing, vertical resolution is increased


and earth impulse response or reflectivity is
approximately recovered.
