Abstract
The Petrel Sub-basin Marine Survey was undertaken in May 2012 by Geoscience Australia and the Australian Institute of Marine Science to support assessment of CO2 storage potential in the Bonaparte Basin. The aim of sub bottom profiling was high resolution data to investigate regional seal breaches and potential fluid pathways. The sub bottom profiler data were acquired aboard the AIMS RV Solander, a total of 51 lines and 654 line km. Acquisition employed a Squid 2000 sparker and a 24 channel GeoEel streamer. Group interval of 3.125 m and shot interval of 6.25 m resulted in 6 fold stacked data. Record length was 500 ms, sampled every 0.25 ms. Rough sea conditions during the trade winds resulted in obvious relative motion between source and streamer. Multichannel seismic reflection processing compensated for most of the limitations of sparker acquisition. Front end mute and band pass filter removed low frequency noise. Non surface consistent trim statics corrected for the relative motion of sparker and streamer, aligning reflections pre stack and improving signal to noise. Post stack minimum entropy deconvolution both suppressed ghosting and enhanced high frequencies (>1000 Hz). Vertical resolution of better than 1 m allowed delineation of multiple episodes of channelling in the top 100 m of sediment. Imaging of small channels was improved by collapsing diffractions with finite difference migration.
