Method for sub-salt migration velocity analysis

摘要

A method for interpreting seismic data below a salt layer includes depth migrating the seismic data to a bottom of the salt layer. The migrating including generating an initial model of velocities below the salt layer. The initial model is scaled by a plurality of scale factors at at least one image position. At least one of the plurality of scale factors for which a depth migrated image below the salt layer is optimum is selected as the scale factor.
