Topics

1. Acquisition

    • State of the art as well as emerging seabed acquisition technologies

    • Hybrid streamer-seabed surveys

    • New concepts in OBS survey designs

    • Cabled versus nodal receivers, retrievable versus permanent systems (PRM)

    • Technology enablers such as electronic miniaturization, compressive sensing, continuous recording, simultaneous source acquisition, low frequency marine sources, autonomous nodal operations, and autonomous source vessels

    • Active and passive time lapse 4D surveys

    • Advances in operational efficiency and autonomous technologies

    • Operational and Health safety and Environment issues related to seabed operations


2. New Processing, imaging and velocity model building

• Pre-processing such as sensor calibration, noise attenuation, signal processing and regularization

• Seabed-specific imaging workflows and post-imaging processing

• Benefits of seabed seismic for model building and acoustic and elastic FWI

• "Reflectivity FWI"

• Automation to overcome intensive manual iterations


3. Case studies – From acquisition to interpretation 

• Challenges and benefits of seabed seismic for interpretation and inversion

• Multicomponent seismic. Using all four components and the full elastic wavefield.

• 4D

• Integration of multi-physics and seabed seismic


4. Novel applications 

  • Deliverables for the geotechnical and the well construction industries

  • Near seabed characterization for windfarms

  • CO2 sequestration & monitoring 

  • Other


Plenary sessions will be organized to cover topics that are expected to be of interest for all the attendees. Poster and break-out sessions will be organized for the experts in specific topics to dig more into the details.

This workshop is intended to be a limited-attendance meeting for an intensive informal exchange of ideas, insights, and technical information. As such, the participants will be encouraged to share their experiences on what works all the time, what works some of the time, and what never works. Unresolved problems or unsuccessful case histories are therefore welcome and ad-hoc breakout sessions will be organized along with discussion sessions which can be used to bring valuable lessons to the foreground.

Submission Deadline is 31 March 2023 .
