Description:
Following the breakthrough in the last decade in identifying the key
parameters for time and depth imaging in anisotropic media and developing practical
methodologies for estimating them from seismic data, this title primarily focuses on the
far reaching exploration benefits of anisotropic processing. This volume provides the
first comprehensive description of reflection seismic signatures and processing methods
in anisotropic media. It identifies the key parameters for time and depth imaging in
transversely isotropic media and describes practical methodologies for estimating them
from seismic data. Also, it contains a thorough discussion of the important issues of
uniqueness and stability of seismic velocity analysis in the presence of anisotropy. The
book contains a complete description of anisotropic imaging methods, from the
theoretical background to algorithms to implementation issues. Numerous applications to
synthetic and field data illustrate the improvements achieved by the anisotropic
processing and the possibility of using the estimated anisotropic parameters in
lithology discrimination.
