Knowledge of interval attenuation can be highly beneficial in reservoir characterization and lithology discrimination. We combine the spectral-ratio method with velocity-independent layer stripping to develop a technique for the estimation of the interval attenuation coefficient from reflection seismic data. The layer-stripping procedure is based on identifying the reflections from the top and bottom of the target layer that share the same ray segments in the overburden. The algorithm is designed for heterogeneous, arbitrarily anisotropic target layers, but the overburden is assumed to be laterally homogeneous with a horizontal symmetry plane. Although no velocity information about the overburden is needed, interpretation of the computed anisotropic attenuation coefficient involves the phase angle in the target layer. Tests on synthetic P-wave data from layered transversely isotropic and orthorhombic media confirm the high accuracy of 2D and 3D versions of the algorithm. We also demonstrate that the interval attenuation estimates are independent of the inhomogeneity angle of the incident and reflected waves.
