The main difficulty in extending seismic processing to anisotropic media is the recovery of
anisotropic velocity fields from surface reflection data. We suggest carrying out velocity …

This is the third edition of Seismic signatures and analysis of reflection data in anisotropic
media, with the first two published by Elsevier in 2001 and 2005. I am delighted that the …

When transversely isotropic (VTI) media with vertical symmetry axes are characterized using
the zero-dip normal moveout (NMO) velocity [V nmo (0)] and the anisotropy parameter …

Introduction to Petroleum Seismology, second edition, provides the theoretical and practical
foundation for tackling present and future challenges of petroleum seismology, especially …

P-wave reflections from horizontal interfaces in transversely isotropic (TI) media have
nonhyperbolic moveout. It has been shown that such moveout as well as all time-related …

The subject of seismic anisotropy has a long history, but only recently has it come to be seen
as a central feature of geophysics, as applied to the exploration for hydrocarbons and to …

Seismic anisotropy in dipping shales causes imaging and positioning problems for
underlying structure's. We developed an isotropic depth-migration approach for P-wave …

Tilted transverse isotropy (TTI) provides a useful model for the elastic response of a medium
containing aligned fractures with a symmetry axis oriented obliquely in the vertical and …

Seismic wave propagation in transversely isotropic (TI) media is commonly described by a
set of coupled partial differential equations, derived from the acoustic approximation. These …

In areas where seismic imaging of the base of salt structures is difficult, seaborne
electromagnetic techniques offer complementary as well as independent structural …
