Abstract
Methods and systems for target oriented 4D binning of seismic data are presented. A target depth horizon is selected in the vicinity of where 4D changes are expected. Respectively for each data vintage, relationships between the seismic traces and reflection bins, associated with the depth surface, are established and the seismic traces are divided into common reflection angle subsets. The best matching traces from both vintages are selected for each reflection bin and output for further processing.
