Vertical Seismic Profiles (VSPs) supply information about both velocity and subsurface interface locations. Properly designed VSPs can be used to map steeply dipping interfaces such as salt dome flanks. Mapping subsurface interfaces with VSP data requires careful survey design, appropriate data processing, interval velocity estimation, and reflector mapping. The first of these four ingredients is satisfied in most cases by preacquisition modeling. The second is accomplished by careful data processing. The initial velocity estimates are provided by seismic tomography. Velocity model refinement is accomplished by a combination of iterative modeling and iterative least squares inversion. Finally, the resultant interval velocities are used in depth migration of the processed VSP. These four ingredients have been combined to map a salt dome flank.
