Title: The Innovative Contributions of Petr Jilek
Introduction
Petr Jilek is a notable inventor based in Houston, TX (US), recognized for his significant contributions to the field of seismic imaging and data processing. With a total of 3 patents, Jilek has developed innovative methods that enhance the understanding of subterranean geological formations.
Latest Patents
One of Jilek's latest patents is titled "Interactive image weighting by illumination in seismic imaging." This method involves displaying a gather of seismic images generated from a set of seismic data representative of a geological formation. The process includes interactively selecting an illumination band based on the degree of signal and noise separation in the seismic images. It further decomposes each seismic image into partial images defined by the selected illumination band, allowing for the interactive selection and weighting of portions based on signal predominance. The final step involves stacking the selected, interactively weighted portions and displaying an image of the stacked, weighted portions.
Another significant patent is the "System and method for using time-distance characteristics in acquisition, processing, and imaging of T-CSEM data." This invention provides a system and method for acquiring, processing, and imaging transient Controlled Source ElectroMagnetic (t-CSEM) data, similar to seismic data processing. It exploits the time-distance characteristics of t-CSEM data to design and execute surveys for optimal processing and imaging. The invention also illustrates how to correct t-CSEM data traces for attenuation and dispersion, enhancing their characteristics to align more closely with seismic data.
