Processing and interpretation of multichannel seismic data from Van Mijenfjorden, Svalbard

Abstract

This work was done based on 19 seismic lines from Van Mijenfjorden, collected during Svalex in 2007 and 2008. In the first part of the thesis the seismic data, with particular emphasis on removal of seabed multiples have been described. In the second part of the thesis the profiles are broadly interpreted. The interpretation part emphasized on identifying large-scale structures and to interpret the different seismic units on the basis of a pre-defined seismic stratigraphic framework of western Spitsbergen.
