The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has just concluded its Sixth Assessment Report Cycle (AR6). The reports making up the AR6 provide the most comprehensive overview of the current state of climate change, its impacts and the adaptation and mitigation options that are ...

Screen opportunities using the latest North Sea seepage data results, which comprise more than 5,000 interpreted satellite-borne radar scenes to provide unrivalled insight into the nature and locations of hydrocarbon seepage across the entire North Sea.

The Cornerstone OBN data set delivers subsurface images of unprecedented quality in the most challenging areas of the UK Central North Sea, de-risking field development and near-field exploration.

Time-lapse seismic is now being used more frequently to assist reservoir development, prevent infrastructure damage or monitor geological storage. To better reveal true 4D signals while suppressing acquisition-related noise as a result of, for example, water velocity changes, source positioning errors etc., a new ...

Successful applications of full waveform inversion (FWI) to land datasets are far less numerous than marine applications, yet the development of dense, long-offset broadband acquisitions has presented promising opportunities. While challenges exist due to elastic effects, acoustic land FWI has been shown to provide ...

Spanning decades of exploration and production in the United Kingdom Continental Shelf, many programs of towed streamer data have shaped our knowledge of the Central North Sea. However, the fundamental lack of illumination and azimuth/offset coverage provided by towed streamer geometries, remains a blocker ...

Full waveform inversion (FWI) using diving waves has in recent years become a standard model-building tool in the Central North Sea (CNS). Below the maximum depth of diving wave penetration however, we have remained reliant on ray based tomographic methods, which although powerful, have ...

There have been many advances in natural language processing in recent years but most of the work have been focused on texts from a general domain or medicine and so datasets in the geology domain are sadly lacking. We demonstrate how existing taxonomy and ...

The Greater Castberg survey was acquired in 2019 using a source-over-spread acquisition design with an additional source at the front of the streamers, towed by the receiver boat, to permit recording of longer offsets. Starting from an initial anisotropic model, time-lag full waveform inversion ...
