Abstract
A method for optimizing a seismic survey design includes obtaining a well trajectory, determining a depth range and a measurement interval for the seismic survey, determining an optimal seismic shot position for each receiver within the depth range using an inverse function, determining one or more potential seismic shot configurations that each include a number of seismic shots, a location for each of the number of seismic shots, and a power of each of the seismic shots, determining an estimate of a data quality for each of the determined one or more potential seismic shot configurations using an objective function, and determining an optimum seismic survey design based on the determined estimated data quality for each of the determined one or more potential seismic shot configurations, wherein the estimated data quality for the optimum seismic survey design is greater than a predetermined minimum threshold.
