Noise attenuation is a very important step in seismic data processing, which facilitates accurate geologic interpretation. Random noise is one of the main factors that lead to reductions in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of seismic data. It is necessary for seismic data, including complex geological structures, to develop a number of new noise attenuation technologies. In this article, we concern with a new variational regularization method for random noise attenuation of seismic data. Considering that seismic reflection events often have spatially varying directions, we first employ the gradient structure tensor (GST) to estimate the spatially varying dips point by point and propose the structure-oriented directional total generalized variation (DTGV) (SODTGV) functional. Then, we employ the SODTGV as a regularizer to establish an $\ell _{2}$ -SODTGV model and develop the primal-dual algorithm for solving this model. Next, the choice of the model parameters is discussed. Finally, the proposed model is applied to restore noisy synthetic and field data to verify the effectiveness of the proposed workflow. For contrastive methods, we select the structure adaptive median filtering (SAMF), anisotropic total variation (ATV), total generalized variation (TGV), DTGV, median filtering, KL transform, SVD transform, and curvelet transform. The synthetic and real seismic data examples indicate that our proposed method can preferably improve the vertical resolution of seismic profiles, enhance the lateral continuity of reflection events, and preserve local geologic features while improving the SNR. Moreover, the proposed regularization method can also be applied to other inverse problems, such as image processing, medical imaging, and remote sensing.
