Brushing up on your geothermal vocabulary
It must have been a major exercise to write the paper that was published recently by authors Maryam Khodayar and Sveinbjörn Björnsson in the Open Journal of Geology. I know…
Worldwide
Answering the 3-billion fossil question
The Norwegian Offshore Directorate (NOD) is undertaking a massive and innovative project to digitalize their comprehensive archive of palynology slides, thereby propelling the field of biostratigraphy into the digital age.…
The globalization of gas
In 2022, Europe witnessed an energy crisis like no other in modern times. Natural gas prices soared, hitting a historic high of more than €330 per MWh in August 2022.…
DUG Multi-parameter FWI Imaging has changed the game
The traditional seismic processing and imaging workflow has been around for decades. It involves the testing and application of dozens of processing steps such as deghosting, designature, demultiple and regularisation,…
Can map tools find relevant documents?
Putting documents and presentations on a map isn’t anything new. To do this we can just look up our various place names (known as “toponyms”) and then when these names…
Shock comparisons with DUG MP-FWI Imaging
DUG MP-FWI Imaging delivers unsurpassed imaging using raw field data as input. It simultaneously solves the challenges of a complex pre-processing and imaging workflow, while removing assumptions. Least-squares imaging of…
Should you rely on geothermal gradients?
When I start a new project, I commonly get this question: “What is the geothermal gradient in this area?” The question stems from an underlying assumption that the gradient provides…
DUG MP-FWI Imaging unveils a land of opportunity
Resolving subtle structural and stratigraphic features in land seismic datasets is an arduous task for conventional processing and imaging workflows. In the examples above DUG MP-FWI Imaging has produced a…
Navigate shallow waters with DUG MP-FWI Imaging
Shallow-water environments are notoriously challenging for conventional processing workflows due to the presence of strong, short-period multiples that obscure primary signal. Limitations in common multiple-prediction schemes often result in derived…
Subsalt success with DUG MP-FWI Imaging
Resolving illumination issues caused by complex salt bodies has been a persistent geophysical challenge. DUG MP-FWI Imaging uses all parts of the scattered wavefield to reconstruct the reflectivity and kinematic…
DUG MP-FWI Imaging enables new discoveries with old data
DUG MP-FWI Imaging is not just a solution for modern acquisition. It’s not just for high-density, full-azimuth, long-offset data. While modern acquisition has many benefits, significant uplift can still be…
DUG MP-FWI Imaging: Field data to fluid prediction
Quantitative interpretation requires true amplitudes and high signal-to-noise ratio. DUG MP-FWI Imaging delivers superior pre-stack reflectivity outputs for both AVA analysis, and, elastic rock property and fluid prediction—directly from field…
