“…Fold geometry, internal structure complexity, highly dipping layers, and faulting associated with folding complicate the wave propagation (Alaei, 2005;Lines et al, 2000). Reflection seismic images from fold and thrust belts have frequently failed to give the correct picture of the subsurface structures when tested by drilled wells (Lingrey, 1991). Due to velocity and structural complexity, rays are bent and there are nonhyperbolic arrival times in addition to the hyperbolic arrival times.…”
