We propose a multiples attenuation method for poststack seismic data by approximating conventional virtual events. The proposed method is iterative. The proposed method is tested using 2D synthetic and the field poststack seismic datasets. Compared with the conventional virtual events method, the proposed method does not require data regularization and offers higher computation efficiency. The method requires to know the travel time of the primary reflection waves. The results of the application to 2D field datasets suggest that the proposed method attenuates the internal multiples while highlighting the deep primaries.展开更多
