Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations including: clipping an average velocity grid of a seismic reference surface (SRSAV), in an oil and gas field, to remove average velocity data of a region containing high-angle, horizontal (HA/HZ) boreholes, wherein the seismic reference surface approximates a geological reference surface; based on (i) a depth grid of the geological reference surface (GRSD) generated using HA/HZ borehole data, and (ii) a time grid of the seismic reference surface (SRST), generating borehole average velocity grid (BAV) along the HA/HZ boreholes; gridding the BAV with the clipped SRSAV to generate a hybrid seismic borehole average velocity grid (HSBAV) of the oil and gas field; and based on the HSBAV and the SRST, generating a hybrid seismic geological depth grid (HSGD) of the oil and gas field.
