Subsurface Imaging

We turn geophysical data into actionable information. Our internationally acclaimed subsurface imaging centers apply innovative methods to get the most out of potential field, borehole seismic and surface seismic data. Specialty algorithms cope with extremes of structure, velocity contrasts and anisotropy while imaging subsalt reservoirs, heterogeneous shale plays and bypassed hydrocarbons in mature fields. 4D processing identifies changes over time in fluid, pressure and stress. Broadband processing draws out thin beds and small sedimentary traps. Project output ranges from feasibility studies to interpretation and reservoir characterization-ready volumes.
