Reservoir seismic applications require offset domain seismic data to be converted into angles. While it is straightforward to convert offsets to angles under the isotropic assumptions, such a transformation is complex in the presence of anisotropy. Correct interpretation of angle dependent reflection amplitudes requires offset domain data to be corrected for the non-hyperbolic anisotropic moveout and distinction between the phase and the group angles. Some of these fundamental issues relating to the angle dependent P-wave seismic reflections for transversely isotropic elastic medium with a vertical symmetry axis (VTI medium) are reviewed here with illustrations.
