Introduction: Least-squares Migration • Seismic migration: Given: Observed data • modelling operator Migration velocity Goal: find a reflectivity model to explain by solving the equation • expensive Direct solution: Conventional migration: • Iterative solution:
Introduction: Motivation for LSM • Problems in conventional migration image 0 Z (km) migration artifacts 3 0 X (km) 6 0 X (km) 6 imbalanced amplitude
Problem of LSM • Least-squares migration has been shown to produce high quality images, but it is considered too expensive for practical imaging. • Solution: combine multisource technique and least-squares migration (MLSM).
Multisource Migration Image Motivation for Multisource • Problem: LSM is too slow Many (i.e. 20) times slower than standard migration • Solution: multisource phase-encoding technique Multisource Crosstalk • Multisource LSM • To: • Increase efficiency • Remove artifacts • Suppress crosstalk
Overview • Chapter 2 : MLSM is implemented with Kirchhoff migration method and the performance is analysed with signal-to-noise ratio measurements. • Chapter 3: MLSM is implemented with reverse time migration and plane-wave encoding. • Chapter 4: A new method is proposed to migrate prism waves with reverse time migration.

Chapter 2: Conclusions • MLSM can produce high quality images efficiently. • LSM produces high quality image. • Multisource technique increases computational efficiency. • SNR analysis suggests that not too many iterations are needed.
Chapter 2: Limitations • MLSM implemented with Kirchhoff migration can only reduce I/O cost. • need to be implemented with reverse time migration. • Random encoding method requires fixed spread acquisition geometry. • Plane-wave encoding.
Limitation of Random Encoding • It is not applicable to marine streamer data. Fixed spread geometry (synthetic) Marine streamer geometry (observed) 6 traces 4 traces Mismatch between acquisition geometries will dominate the misfit.

Chapter 4: Introduction • Problem: Vertical boundaries (salt flanks) are difficult to image because they are usually not illuminated by primary reflections. • Solution: Prism waves contain valuable information.
Conventional Method • When the known boundaries are embedded in the velocity model, conventional RTM can migrate prism waves correctly.
