	abstract = {Acquired seismic data is normally not the fully sampled data we would like to work with since traces are missing due to physical constraints or budget limitations. Rank minimization is an effective way to recovering the missing trace data. Unfortunately, this technique{\textquoteright}s performance may deteriorate at higher frequency because high-frequency data can not necessarily be captured accurately by low-rank matrix factorizations albeit remedies exist such as hierarchical semi-separable matrices. As a result, recovered data often suffers from low signal to noise ratio S/Rs at the higher frequencies. To deal with this situation, we propose a weighted recovery method that improves the performance at the high frequencies by recursively using information from matrix factorizations at neighboring lower frequencies. Essentially, we include prior information from previously reconstructed frequency slices during the wavefield reconstruction. We apply our method to data collected from the Gulf of Suez, which shows that our method performs well compared to the traditional method without weighting.},

	abstract = {Sparsity promotion based joint microseismic source collocation and source time function estimation, using Linearized Bregman algorithm, although simple to implement, suffers from slow convergence. This is due to the fact that Linearized Bregman algorithm has only first order of convergence. In this work, we propose to accelerate the existing Linearized Bregman algorithm using the L-BFGS algorithm. Without any initial guess for the source location or source time function, our method is able to estimate the source location and source time function for kinematically correct smooth velocity model. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method for multiple sources spaced within half a wavelength. We also compare our results with Linearized Bregman based method in {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}2.5{\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}D instead of {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}2{\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}D.},

	year = {2017},
	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {Most conventional 3D time-lapse (or 4D) acquisitions are ocean-bottom cable (OBC) or ocean-bottom node (OBN) surveys since these surveys are relatively easy to replicate compared to towed-streamer surveys. To attain high degrees of repeatability, survey replicability and dense periodic sampling has become the norm for 4D surveys that renders this technology expensive. Conventional towed-streamer acquisitions suffer from limited illumination of subsurface due to narrow azimuth. Although, acquisition techniques such as multi-azimuth, wide-azimuth, rich-azimuth acquisition, etc., have been developed to illuminate the subsurface from all possible angles, these techniques can be prohibitively expensive for densely sampled surveys. This leads to uneven sampling, i.e., dense receiver and coarse source sampling or vice-versa, in order to make these acquisitions more affordable. Motivated by the design principles of Compressive Sensing (CS), we acquire economic, randomly subsampled (or compressive) and simultaneous towed-streamer time-lapse data without the need of replicating the surveys. We recover densely sampled time-lapse data on one and the same periodic grid by using a joint-recovery model (JRM) that exploits shared information among different time-lapse recordings, coupled with a computationally cheap and scalable rank-minimization technique. The acquisition is low cost since we have subsampled measurements (about 70\% subsampled), simulated with a simultaneous long-offset acquisition configuration of two source vessels travelling across a survey area at random azimuths. We analyze the performance of our proposed compressive acquisition and subsequent recovery strategy by conducting a synthetic, at scale, seismic experiment on a 3D time-lapse model containing geological features such as channel systems, dipping and faulted beds, unconformities and a gas cloud. Our findings indicate that the insistence on replicability between surveys and the need for OBC/OBN 4D surveys can, perhaps, be relaxed. Moreover, this is a natural next step beyond the successful CS acquisition examples discussed during this session.},

	abstract = {Microseismic waves generated by hydraulic fracturing are used to locate the fractures created in the reservoir. Most of the existing source collocation methods have their limitations in terms of resolution of very closely spaced microseismic events. In this work we propose a method to collocate microseismic events with high resolution along with simultaneous estimation of source time function. In the context of waves, the finite-difference modelling operator acts as an analysis operator for wavefields. This implies that wavefields under the action of a finite-difference modelling kernel can be focused to sources generating these wavefields. We exploit this property of wavefields to locate microseismic events and estimate the source time function jointly. To arrive at a computational feasible scheme, we use the accelerated version of Linearized Bregman (LBR) algorithm to solve the above mentioned problem. This is joint work with Rongrong Wang.},
