Abstract

Enhanced seismic velocity models are generated using a geomechanical model. A tomographic velocity model is generated based on raw seismic data. One or more initial seismic images are generated based at least partially on the tomographic velocity model. Geomechanical data and the initial seismic images are used to generate a geomechanical model. The geomechanical model produces geomechanical outputs that are used to generate a geomechanical velocity model. A second tomographic velocity model is generated based on the first tomographic velocity model and the geomechanical velocity model.
