Stacking Velocity VS
Is the velocity that you have to put into the NMO equations
such that the CMP gather stacks (adds) together best, i.e. the
velocity that allows the best fit of the travel time curve on a
CMP gather to the hyperbola within the spread length.
Approximately equal to VRMS for small spreads
b) Best-fitting hyperbola
(stacking velocity)
VNMO=VRMS
c) NMO approximation
(short spread)

In general, its likely that multiples have a slower
NMO velocity than primaries at the same TWT

Corrected gathers can be put
into FK domain
Primaries plot on K=0 axis,
multiple plot at range of +ve K
If a stacking velocity
function between
primaries & multiples is
used, primaries &
multiples are over- and
under-corrected, so plot
into opposite halves of K
space
