The primary objective of seismic data processing is to generate seismic cross-section with an optimum signal to noise ratio to model geological structures imaging as accurately as possible with the actual condition. However, we may look onto complex geological structures with less than adequate number of fold coverage seismic data. In this study, Common Reflection Surface (CRS) method is applied to generate 2D marine seismic cross-sections with better reflector continuity of 3 (three) real data seismic lines. It is based on obtaining the suitable aperture value along the attributes namely RN, RNIP, and a. Its results are compared to conventional Common Mid-Point (CMP) ones. The final products are presented in multiple- attenuated and time-migrated cross-section with Surface Related Multiple Elimination (SRME) and Kirchhoff Migration techniques, respectively. Comparison of final time-migrated both CRS and CMP stacks show the CRS method is more effective and reliable to model accurate complex marine geological structures with high signal to noise ratio based on reflector continuity and noise reduction.
