Abstract

Seismic attenuation is often calculated by attenuated travel time tomography. The accuracy of this method is controlled by the precision of attenuated travel time. In this paper, a novel T* revise in attenuated travel time tomography method for Q inversion was developed. The attenuated travel time was calculated from seismic data by using a logarithmic spectral ratio inversion strategy. In the inversion process, multiple offset traces were used for multiple attenuated travel time calculations. The proposed method produced more accurate results compared to those of the conventional approach without the requirement of choosing an optimistic frequency band. The accuracy of the proposed method was improved by avoiding the effect of overburden. Both synthetic and real data examples prove the viability and effectiveness of the proposed method.
