Need to land a well in the optimum place? Worried about setting your intermediate casing correctly? Do you have multiple vintages of log data that need to be normalized? Want to derisk a field development? Require resolution that conventional seismic cannot offer?
We can help.
There are many aspects of the field exploitation process that our solutions can help with - from simply ensuring that the data going in to a study is optimized, to advanced workflows that allow for integration of geopressures into the seismic at reservoir model scales. We have the experience and cross-disciplinary knowledge to find the right mix of technology to assist in the reservoir characterization process. Together with our industry partners we can offer a broad portfolio of seismically focused solutions.
