The evolution and characteristics of the time-to-depth conversion method of time-migrated data that has been used successfully at Petrobras for the last 20 years is described. Such methodology is primarily based on the image-ray concept, but also integrates other imaging techniques such as multiple-stacking Kirchhoff migration and wavefront construction. To illustrate the methodology's usage as well as some problems that were overcome, two examples are provided: one at Roncador field and the other at Albacora field.
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.
