Seismic event detection on shot gathers with U-net segmentation

Abstract

Summary We have applied a U-net style image segmentation to seismic shot records to classify specific features, such as groundroll and reflections. The objective of this approach is to facilitate dedicated processing and quality control that can be applied to segmented subsets of samples in a shot gather. The results obtained using the field dataset demonstrate the feasibility of the concept within a single seismic survey.
