Key points Scattered field can be deghosted without source wavelet and vertical derivative of the wavefield Field data test requirements: interpolation and extrapolation, high computation power Derivation of the Green’s theorem deghosting, wavelet estimation and field prediction algorithms

Motivation Remove the seismic distortion due to ghosts Angle and frequency dependent distortion, ghost notch A pre-requisite for all of the current inverse scattering series related algorithms: FSMR, IMA, Imaging and inversion

Without source wavelet Consequences: (1) Direct wave and its ghost: remains (2) Scattered field: no effect

Without source wavelet Between FS and MS, the scattered field satisfies: Notice there is no source term. From similar derivation of the field prediction: compared to So (1) the absent of source wavelet has no effect on the prediction of the scattered field. (2) the term only contribute to the prediction of the direct wave and its ghost.

Without source wavelet Absent of source wavelet only cause inaccuracy in prediction of the direct wave and its ghost, while the scattered field prediction is accurate Scattered field can be deghosted well even without source wavelet Problems exist at places (especially for shallow water cases) where the direct wave interfere with the scattered field

Field data tests Surface integration: Source wavelet Receiver array Surface data measurements: data interpolation and extrapolation Large computation power Source wavelet Receiver array

Conclusions Green’s theorem deghosting produce encouraging results when the source wavelet is available. Even without the source wavelet, scattered field can still be deghosted. The surface integration requires surface data measurements and high computation power. At the same time, it provides stable results due to that integration. Interpolation and Extrapolation, high computation power are necessary for field data tests.
