%X Several recent advances made in 3-D seismic data processing are discussed in this paper.Development of a time-variant FK dip-moveout algorithm allows application of the correct three-dimensional operator. Coupled with a high-dip one-pass 3-D migration algorithm, this provides improved resolution and response at all azimuths. The use of dilation operators extends the capability of the process to include an economical and accurate (within well-defined limits) 3-D depth migration.Accuracy of the migration velocity model may be improved by the use of migration velocity analysis: of the two approaches considered, the data-subsetting technique gives more reliable and interpretable results.Conflicts in recording azimuth and bin dimensions of overlapping 3-D surveys may be resolved by the use of a 3-D interpolation algorithm applied post 3-D stack and which allows the combined surveys to be 3-D migrated as one data set.
