	abstract = {Seismic imaging in challenging sedimentary basins and reservoirs requires acquiring, processing, and imaging very large volumes of data (tens of terabytes). To reduce the cost of acquisition and the time from acquiring the data to producing a subsurface image, novel acquisition systems based on compressive sensing, low-rank matrix recovery, and randomized sampling have been developed and implemented. These approaches allow practitioners to achieve dense wavefield reconstruction from a substantially reduced number of field samples. However, designing acquisition surveys suited for this new sampling paradigm remains a critical and challenging role in oil, gas, and geothermal exploration. Typical random designs studied in the low-rank matrix recovery and compressive sensing literature are difficult to achieve by standard industry hardware. For practical purposes, a compromise between stochastic and realizable samples is needed. In this paper, we propose a deterministic and computationally cheap tool to alleviate randomized acquisition design, prior to survey deployment and large-scale optimization. We consider universal and deterministic matrix completion results in the context of seismology, where a bipartite graph representation of the source-receiver layout allows for the respective spectral gap to act as a quality metric for wavefield reconstruction. We provide realistic scenarios to demonstrate the utility of the spectral gap as a flexible tool that can be incorporated into existing survey design workflows for successful seismic data acquisition via low-rank and sparse signal recovery.},

	abstract = {Simultaneous shooting methods using encoded sweeps can enhance the productivity of land acquisition in situations where deployment of many vibrators and larger receiver spread is not possible in the field due to obstructions or permit limitations. However, the existing framework requires shooting the full sequence of encoded sweeps on each shot point to reconstruct the complete frequency bandwidth Green{\textquoteright}s function. Although this simultaneous shooting method reduces the sweeping time vs conventional sequential shooting, the gain in efficiency is limited. To further reduce the sweeping time, we propose to acquire randomly selected subsets of the encoded sweeps sequences followed by a rank-minimization based joint source separation and spectral interpolation framework to reconstruct the full bandwidth deblended Green{\textquoteright}s function. We demonstrate the advantages of proposed sampling and reconstruction framework using a synthetic seismic line simulated using SEG-SEAM Phase II land velocity and density model.},

	abstract = {Two important developments in seismic acquisition in the last decade were introduction of simultaneous shooting and reconstruction via inversion of the complete seismic wavefield. As the seismic wavefield is typically under sampled in at least one of the four spatial coordinates, both developments could contribute to improve the sampling and, in addition, to increase acquisition efficiency. Herein, we look at the impact of seismic noise when simultaneous shooting and seismic wavefield reconstruction are implemented for a land or ocean bottom seismic survey.},

	booktitle = {EAGE Annual Conference Proceedings},
	year = {2017},
	note = {(EAGE, Paris)},
	month = {06},
	abstract = {Removal of high-amplitude cross-flow noise in marine towed-streamer acquisition is of great interest because cross-flow noise hinders the success of subsequent processing (e.g. EPSI) and migration. However, the removal of cross-flow noise is a challenging process because cross-flow noise dominates steep angles and low-frequency components of the signal. As a result, applying a simple high-pass filter can result in a loss of coherent diving waves and reflected energy. We propose a stable curvelet-based principle-component pursuit approach that does not suffer from this shortcoming because it uses angle- and scale-adaptivity of the curvelet transform in combination with the low-rank property of cross-flow noise. As long as the cross-flow noise exhibits low-rank in the curvelet domain, our method successfully separates this signal component from the diving waves and seismic reflectivity, which is well-know to be sparse in the curvelet domain. Experimental results on a common-shot gather extracted from a coil shooting survey in the Gulf of Mexico shows the potential of our approach.},

We will show that we can recover full-azimuthal interpolated data from highly subsampled data, where the subsampling ratio is 4\%. This is the first time, we are testing our interpolation ideas on real 3D marine seismic data acquisition. Our findings show that we can avoid the general practice of windowing the data while performing the interpolation, specially using rank-minimization based framework.},
