Time-to-depth conversion and seismic velocity estimation using time-migration velocity
The objective of this work is to build an efficient algorithm (a) to estimate seismic velocity from time-migration velocity, and (b) to convert time-migrated images to depth. We establish theoretical relations between the time-migration velocity and the seismic velocity in 1 Page 1 of 23 GEOPHYSICS 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 3...
متن کاملime-to-depth conversion and seismic velocity stimation using time-migration velocity
The objective was to build an efficient algorithm 1 to estimate seismic velocity from time-migration velocity, and 2 to convert time-migrated images to depth. We established theoretical relations between the time-migration velocity and seismic velocity in two and three dimensions using paraxial ray-tracing theory. The relation in two dimensions implies that the conventional Dix velocity is the ...
متن کاملSeismic velocity estimation from time migration
We address the problem of estimating seismic velocities inside the Earth which is necessary for obtaining seismic images in regular Cartesian coordinates. The main goals are to develop algorithms to convert time-migration velocities to true seismic velocities, and to convert time-migrated images to depth images in regular Cartesian coordinates. Our main results are three-fold. First, we establi...
متن کاملSeismic Velocity Estimation from Time Migration Velocities
We address the problem of estimating seismic velocities inside the earth which is necessary for obtaining seismic images in regular Cartesian coordinates. We derive a relation between the true seismic velocities and the routinely obtained so called ”time migration velocities”, which are some kind of mean velocities. We formulate an inverse problem and show that it is ill-posed. We suggest three...
متن کاملSeismic velocity estimation and time to depth conversion of time-migrated images
We address the problem of time to depth conversion of time migrated seismic images and show that the Dix velocities estimated from time migration velocities are the true seismic velocities divided by the geometrical spreading of image rays. We pose an inverse problem: to find seismic velocities from Dix velocities and suggest two algorithms for solving this problem. One algorithm is based on th...
