Khalid Amin Khan Oil & Gas Development Co. Ltd. Islamabad Gulraiz Akhter Quaid-i-Azam University Islamabad Velocity is a fundamental property of rocks that depends on density and elastic moduli. It varies laterally as well as vertically due to the physical-geologic variations of rocks. Velocities are determined less precisely from closely spaced seismic reflection data, while precise measurements are obtained from widely spaced boreholes. Velocities appear to be complex due to their various types and usage in processing and interpretation applications. This article presents a work flow to develop useful velocity models that can be used in various stages of processing, interpretation, ...
