Abstract:A travel-time tomography method proposed in this paper mainly gets travel-time residual on the basis of angle domain common imaging gathers(ADCIGs) and controls the precision of tomography inversion by well constraint.The key implementation steps are as follows: 1.Build the initial tomography velocity model using a layer interface picked from pre-stack depth migration;2.Get ADCIGs according to selected angle range and calculate the travel-time residual of each layer;3.Calculate the sensitivity matrix corresponding to the ADCIGs;4.Establish the inversion equation systems by adding the regularization and well constraint to inverse the slowness update;5.Determine if the velocity precision meets the demand or not through the flatten degree of ADCIGs events.The travel-time tomography results of model dataset and filed dataset have proved that this method is easy to carry out,without considering complex reflection problem.And the velocity updates of every iteration are obtained based on pre-stack depth migration of previous step,which can achieve velocity field with high precision.
