Abstract:
A method is described for time-lapse seismic imaging that may include detecting moiré patterns in seismic images generated from time-lapse seismic data and identifying geologic features based on the moiré patterns. The method may be executed by a computer system.

Claim (Index 1):
A computer-implemented method of time-lapse seismic imaging, comprising:\n a. receiving a baseline digital seismic image representative of a subsurface volume of interest including a hydrocarbon reservoir; b. receiving a monitor digital seismic image representative of the subsurface volume of interest; c. subtracting the monitor digital seismic image from the baseline digital seismic image to generate a digital difference image; d. detecting moir\u00e9 patterns in the digital difference image; and e. identifying physical changes in the subsurface volume of interest based on the digital difference image.
