In view of the key problem that a large amount of noise in seismic data can easily induce false anomalies and interpretation errors in seismic exploration, the time-frequency spectrum subtraction (TF-SS) method is adopted into data processing to reduce random noise in seismic data. On this basis, the main frequency information of seismic data is calculated and used to optimize the filtering coefficients. According to the characteristics of effective signal duration between seismic data and voice data, the time-frequency spectrum selection method and filtering coefficient are modified. In addition, simulation tests were conducted by using different S/R, which indicates the effectiveness of the TF-SS in removing the random noise.

Time-frequency peak filtering (TFPF) may efficiently suppress random noise and hence improve the signal-to-noise ratio. However, the errors are not always satisfactory when applying the TFPF to fast-varying seismic signals. We begin with an error analysis for the TFPF by using the spread factor of the phase and cumulants of noise. This analysis shows that the nonlinear signal component and non-Gaussian random noise lead to the deviation of the pseudo-Wigner-Ville distribution (PWVD) peaks from the instantaneous frequency. The deviation introduces the signal distortion and random oscillations in the result of the TFPF. We propose a weighted reassigned smoothed PWVD with less deviation than PWVD. The proposed method adopts a frequency window to smooth away the residual oscillations in the PWVD, and incorporates a weight function in the reassignment which sharpens the time-frequency distribution for reducing the deviation. Because the weight function is determined by the lateral coherence of seismic data, the smoothed PWVD is assigned to the accurate instantaneous frequency for desired signal components by weighted frequency reassignment. As a result, the TFPF based on the weighted reassigned PWVD (TFPF_WR) can be more effective in suppressing random noise and preserving signal as compared with the TFPF using the PWVD. We test the proposed method on synthetic and field seismic data, and compare it with a wavelet-transform method and [Formula: see text] prediction filter. The results show that the proposed method provides better performance over the other methods in signal preserving under low signal-to-noise ratio.

In order to improve the resolution of seismic exploration, this paper mainly studied the vibroseis data preprocessing method of metal mining seismic exploration. With the characteristics of vibroseis seismic data, we studied the correlation algorithm of detecting shot gather records, system analyzed the source and classification of noise in copper-nickel detection with Hydraulic sweep source in Jinchang, and chose the denoising method according to the characteristics of noise in the shot gather records. After preprocessing, the SNR of vibroseis seismic data is effectively improved, and then the resolution of seismic section is enhanced.

Improving the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of seismic data is desirable in many seismic exploration areas. The attenuation of random noise can help to improve the S/N. Geophysicists usually use the differences between signal and random noise in certain attributes, such as frequency, wavenumber, or correlation, to suppress random noise. However, in some cases, these differences are too small to be distinguished. We used the difference in planar morphological scales between signal and random noise to separate them. The planar morphological scale is the information that describes the regional shape of seismic waveforms. The attenuation of random noise is achieved by removing the energy in the smaller morphological scales. We call our method planar mathematical morphological filtering (PMMF). We analyze the relationship between the performance of PMMF and its input parameters in detail. Applications of the PMMF method to synthetic and field post/prestack seismic data demonstrate good performance compared with competing alternative techniques.

Seismic data with enhanced resolution allow interpreters to effectively delineate and interpret architectural components of stratigraphically thin geologic features. We used a recently developed time-frequency domain deconvolution method to spectrally balance nonstationary seismic data. The method was based on polynomial fitting of seismic wavelet magnitude spectra. The deconvolution increased the spectral bandwidth but did not amplify random noise. We compared our new spectral modeling algorithm with existing time-variant spectral-whitening and inverse [Formula: see text]-filtering algorithms using a 3D offshore survey acquired over Bohai Gulf, China. We mapped these improvements spatially using a suite of 3D volumetric coherence, energy, curvature, and frequency attributes. The resulting images displayed improved lateral resolution of channel edges and fault edges with few, if any artifacts associated with amplification of random noise.

Detection and identification of subsurface anomalous structures are key objectives in seismic exploration. The coherence technique has been successfully used to identify geologic abnormalities and discontinuities, such as faults and unconformities. Based on the classic third eigenvalue-based coherence ([Formula: see text]) algorithm, we make several improvements and develop a new method to construct covariance matrix using the original and Hilbert transformed seismic traces. This new covariance matrix more readily converges to the main effective signal energy on the largest eigenvalue by decreasing all other eigenvalues. Compared with the conventional coherence algorithms, our algorithm has higher resolution and better noise immunity ability. Next, we incorporate this new eigenvalue-based algorithm with time-lag dip scanning to relieve the dip effect and highlight the discontinuities. Application on 2D synthetic data demonstrates that our coherence algorithm favorably alleviates the low-valued artifacts caused by linear and curved dipping strata and clearly reveals the discontinuities. The coherence results of 3D real field data also commendably suppress noise, eliminate the influence of large dipping strata, and highlight small hidden faults. With the advantages of higher resolution and robustness to random noise, our strategy successfully achieves the goal of detecting the distribution of discontinuities.
