Abstract

Migration is one of the main process in the seismic data processing that tries to image a real geological
structure on seismic section. Migration can be performed before stacking process (Pre-Stack) or after stacking
process (Post-Stack). In this work we have been using Kirchhoff Migration (diffraction stack migration) method
for performing qualitative and quantitative analysis of the migration result on pre-stack and post-stack data in
time and depth domains. The analysis involves factors that significantly influence migrated images: initial
velocity model, image resolution (maximum frequency, migration aperture, number of target model grid), and
true amplitude recovery. On a simple analytic geological stucture, there is no significant difference concernig
the migration result using pre-stack and post-stack data. On more fairly complex structure, such as marmousi
dataset, the results of pre-stack and post-stack migration are significantly different that will be shown in terms of
the above quantitative factors. The whole data processing has been realized by making use of Seismic Unic
(SU) software package.

Abstrak

Migrasi merupakan tahap processing data seismic yang dilakukan untuk mencitrakan struktur geologi dari
penampang seismic yang sebenarnya. .Migrasi dapat dilakukan sebelum stacking (Pre-Stack) dan sesudah
stacking (Post-Stack). Pada penelitian ini dilakukan migrasi dengan metode kirchhof untuk data pre-stack dan
post-stack dalam domain waktu dan kedalaman. Analisa yang dilakukan meliputi beberapa factor yang sangat
berpengaruh pada citra migrasi: model kecepatan, resolusi citra (frekuensi maksimum, apeture migrasi, grid
model), dan penguatan amplitudo. Pada struktur geologi yang tidak terlalu komplek hasil dari migrasi pre-stack
dan post-stack tidak menampakan perbedaan hasil yang besar tetapi akan berbeda jika data yang dimigrasi
mempunyai bentuk struktur yang komplek. Keseluruhan proses kerja penelitian mengunakan perangkat lunak
Seismic Unic (SU).
