Abstract

A method of evaluating processing imprint on seismic signals includes receiving a first and a second seismic dataset of a reservoir. A first and a second synthetic dataset are generated, where the second synthetic dataset is generated by multiplying at least a portion of data in the first synthetic dataset by a scaling factor. A first and a second combined dataset are generated by adding the respective seismic dataset and the respective synthetic dataset. A first and a second processed dataset are generated by applying a seismic processing step on the first and the second combined dataset, respectively. A difference factor between the first and the second processed dataset is calculated. Based on the difference factor and the scaling factor, it is determined whether the seismic processing step is able to preserve signal amplitude changes between the first and the second seismic dataset.
