Abstract


The resolution limit of seismic data is a complex issue that involves on wavelet frequency, phase characteristics and data quality. Spatial as well as temporal resolution is the key to extraction of stratigraphic detail from the seismic data. Interpreters also feel difficulty while integrating seismic, VSP and log data due to higher spectral contents of VSP and Log data and therefore expect comparable bandwidth of the seismic data. For getting greater reflection detail from seismic data utmost care is required at the acquisition stage. Attempts are also to be made during processing stage to enhance the spectral bandwidth. Present attempt deals with the enhancing the resolution through Pre-stack time migration and spectral balancing of the data acquired in an area of Mumbai offshore and processed onboard up to post stack migration.
