Seismic inversion is used in practice as a tool for predicting reservoir properties. It allows one to extract a model with a high level of detail from seismic data, i.e. high-frequency component of the model. In this case, the input data are the time processing results, and the issues related to the low-frequency component of the model are not considered usually. In the presented work, a model-based seismic inversion algorithm is implemented. The input data for the inversion are the depth image results in true amplitudes and the depth migration velocity model. The possibilities of seismic inversion are numerically investigated to refine the low-frequency component of the model. Experiments were carried out using synthetic seismic data got for realistic Sigsbee model.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
