The residual is indicative of a difference between expected input seismic data and the input seismic data, and wherein the input seismic data is configured to be combed with an expanded window such that the expanded window comprises data generated by an earlier seismic source excitation and received before a time of a seismic source excitation that generated an input seismic trace corresponding to the input seismic data. The instructions are also configured to cause the processor to determine a deblended output based at least in part on the residual. In addition, the instructions are configured to cause a processor to update the deblended output based at least in part on a result from performing one or more recovery operations configured to recover coherent signals from non-coherent signals of the deblended output. The coherent signals comprise a matching parameter. Further, the instructions are configured to cause a processor to filter the deblended output to remove a portion of the deblended output that is before the time of the seismic source excitation or before a predicted earliest arrival time of a seismic wave travelling from the seismic source to a receiver, to generate an improved deblended output comprising less noise than the deblended output. Still further, the instructions configured to cause a processor to transmit the filtered deblended output for use in generating a seismic image.

Abrégé
The problem of lost circulation is pertinent to the oil industry. To prevent fluid loss, a lost circulation material (LCM), or more generally, a plugging material, can be used to effectively plug the fractures in the rock formation. If the fractures are in the production zone, it is also ideal to unplug them when the drilling operation is complete. Therefore, a material engineered to degrade after a desired period would be useful. In examples, a plugging material has been developed by gelling an oil-based fluid using a low molecular weight gelator, dibenzylidene sorbitol (DBS). DBS gels are robust and show plugging behavior. DBS is shown to chemically degrade in presence of an acid. Hence, a self-degrading gel can be synthesized by incorporating an acid into the system. Further, by varying the type and concentration of the acid, the degradation time of the gel can be controlled.

System and techniques to fire a first source array at a first time of a first shot timing distribution comprising first time values according to a firing schedule and fire a second source array at a second time of a second shot timing distribution comprising second time values subsequent to firing the first source array and prior to another firing of the first source array according to the firing schedule. Additionally, at least a portion of the second shot timing distribution overlaps with the first shot timing distribution or the at least a portion of the second shot timing distribution is separated from the first shot timing distribution by less than a predetermined period of time and the first time and the second time of the firing schedule are separated by at least the predetermined period of time.
