Comparison of different strategies for velocity model building and imaging of <i>PP</i> and <i>PS</i> real data

Abstract

In 1999, a 2-D/4-C data set acquired with ocean-bottom cable on Mahogany Field, Gulf of Mexico, was distributed at the SEG-EAGE Research Workshop to test the feasibility of using converted waves to image under a salt diapir. We show and discuss results obtained by several imaging methods—some in the time domain, others in the depth domain—applied to both PP and converted-wave fields (PS, also referred to as the C-wave).
