The partnership will unite rock characterisation domain expertise with gaming visualisation technology and cloud-based analytics capabilities to deliver an integrated data-science platform for core and cuttings data visualisation, machine learning and analytics. Together, the partners will provide support to subscribing companies aiming to increase subsurface understanding by exploiting rock and petrophysics data in an interdisciplinary context, while providing the highest level of digital and visualisation competencies and capabilities.
Stratum Reservoir, the leading provider of core, cuttings and fluid analysis for the oil and gas industry and QEMSCAN® automated petrography specialists Rocktype Ltd are long-standing partners, with extensive experience of delivering a wide range of digital rock data to a wide range of operators. They are key data providers within the collaborative Released Wells Initiative (RWI) project. The RWI project is a digital asset of 700,000 analysed cuttings samples from more than 1,930 exploration wells.
Over the last three years, Glex AS, along with front-runner project partners MVest Energy and Lime Petroleum, has developed a cuttings module, fully integrated into their collaboration and analytics platform, Glex Energy. The module enables end-users to access, analyse and plot the RWI data in the context of their proprietary prospect repositories and other relevant exploration assets. By providing access to this data in a cloud-based environment, the module has enabled machine learning and advanced analytics capabilities which have already been utilised for multiple projects.
The announced strategic partnership will bring unique and industry leading domain expertise on core, cutting and in-depth “RWI knowledge” together, facilitated by an established, working digital platform with interfaces derived from cutting-edge, advanced gaming technology.
