Abstract

A method for improving a signal-to-noise ratio of distributed acoustic sensing data may comprise transmitting an acoustic wave from an acoustic source into a subterranean formation, recording a first acoustic noise at a first time interval with a distributed acoustic sensing system, recording at least one acoustic wave and a second acoustic noise at a second time interval with the distributed acoustic sensing system, calculating a noise spectrum from the first time interval, calculating the noise spectrum in the second time interval, and removing the noise spectrum from acoustic data measured during the second time interval to identify acoustic data of the subterranean formation. A system may comprise an acoustic source, a distributed acoustic sensing system disposed within a well, and an information handling system.
