Abstract

The Marchenko method is capable of estimating Green’s functions between the surface of the Earth and arbitrary locations in the subsurface. These Green’s functions are used to redatum wavefields to a deeper level in the subsurface. The Marchenko method enables the isolation of the response of a specific layer or package of layers, free from the influence of the overburden and underburden.

In this study, we apply the Marchenko-based isolation technique to land S-wave seismic data acquired in the Groningen province, the Netherlands. We apply the technique for combined elimination of the overburden and underburden. Our results indicate that this approach enhances the resolution of reflection data. These enhanced reflections can be utilised for imaging and monitoring applications.
