Abstract
Seismic surveys in the vast territory of Eastern Siberia are carried out in seismic and geological conditions of varying complexity. Obtaining a high-quality dynamic seismic image for the work area is a priority task in the states of contrasting heterogeneities of the near-surface. For this, it is necessary to restore an effective depth-velocity model that provides compensation for velocity anomalies and calculates static corrections. However, for the most complex near-surface structure, for example, the presence of trap intrusions and tuffaceous formations, the information content of the velocity models of the near-surface area obtained based on tomographic refinement turns out to be insufficient, and a search for another solution is required. The paper considers an approach based on Full Waveform Inversion (FWI). As the authors showed earlier, multiples associated with the free surface reduce the resolution of this approach. But their use increases the stability of the solution in the presence of uncorrelated noise. Therefore, at the first stage of FWI, the full wavefield is used, including free surface-related multiples, but they are suppressed in the next steps of the data processing. The results obtained demonstrate the ability of the FWI to restore complex geological structures of the near-surface area, even in the presence of high-velocity anomalies (trap intrusions).
