f Depth Processing - Practical Aspects

As the use of depth processing is rapidly expanding, the industry is gaining experience in correct implementation of this<br>evolving technology. Although the core of depth processing is in construction of velocity models and application of<br>prestack depth migration, other important issues need to be carefully considered during each project. These involve<br>selection of correct velocity analysis tool, correct prestack depth migration algorithm, and correct processing aimed to<br>enhance the final image. Integration of all of the above will secure correct result. The paper presented here will discuss<br>how a combination of the above factors is needed in order to successfully execute a depth processing project.
