IntroductionIntroduction
• Refraction data contain hidden Refraction data contain hidden information of reflection traveltimes.information of reflection traveltimes.
• After resorting the data, they are After resorting the data, they are kinematical equivalent to critical kinematical equivalent to critical reflections.reflections.
• Those critical refractions can be Those critical refractions can be migrated just like reflections.migrated just like reflections.
• Less artifacts Less artifacts
• Velocity of refracting layer not necessaryVelocity of refracting layer not necessary
• Any refractor geometry can be migratedAny refractor geometry can be migrated

ConclusionConclusion
• The CRRM method has the potential to The CRRM method has the potential to migrate refraction data more precisely migrate refraction data more precisely than traditional methods.than traditional methods.
• CRRM does not produce artifacts like CRRM does not produce artifacts like traditional methods do.traditional methods do.
• Future Work: Make suggested changes Future Work: Make suggested changes and then apply to field data.and then apply to field data.
