The Tarim Basin is the biggest oiland gas-bearing basin in China, which has undergone long-term and complicated evolutionary history. During each evolutional stage and in different sub-basins in the same stage, the Tarim Basin has different proto-types, and it is thus named a composite and superimposed basin. A study on the basement nature of such a complex but significant to the national oil and gas strategy basin is of great significance (Huang Chenjun et al., 2017). Based on earthquake data, detailed velocity structure of deep basin can be obtained in order to research the basement nature.
