Abstract

A method to perform a marine seismic survey includes obtaining marine seismic data corresponding to a subterranean formation under a water surface. The marine seismic data is generated from an underwater seismic sensor that is subject to an interference effect. The method further includes generating, by a computer processor and using a deconvolution operation, corrected marine seismic data based at least in part on the marine seismic data to compensate for the interference effect, and generating, by the computer processor, a marine seismic survey result based at least in part on the corrected marine seismic data.
