Log-seismic error correction serves as a primary method for determining Thomsen's compressional-wave anisotropic parameters of vertical transverse isotropy(VTI) media.This method is also an essential processing technique for obtaining accurate depth-migrated images.Conventional log-seismic error correction involves determining the log-seismic errors at well locations and then directly applying planar interpolation to correct the depths of seismic horizons.However,the conventional method can lead to structural distortions and anomalous values of anisotropic parameter δ in areas with significantly varying formation thicknesses.To address this issue,researchers typically manually edit and smooth the anisotropic parameter field and the anisotropic velocity field,consuming considerable manpower and time.Hence,this study proposed a structure-oriented log-seismic error correction method that incorporates the concept of log-seismic error coefficient.The proposed method utilizes formation thicknesses as constraints to perform planar interpolation for log-seismic errors.Moreover,it employs a strategy of sequential calculation and interpolation for log-seismic errors from shallow to deep formations.It yielded log-seismic error distribution values that better conform to formation thickness variations and more stable δ values,without anomalous values.Therefore,the proposed method effectively avoids structural distortions induced by log-seismic error correction while saving manpower and time in practical projects.
