Benefits of seismic forward modelling: mitigating risk is always a focus within the oil and gas industry but it becomes even more crucial in these times, with an ongoing pandemic and ensuing low oil price.

2D and 3D seismic data are major sources of information in the oil and gas industry, as well as for geothermal energy activities, carbon sequestration in geological reservoirs and offshore wind energy. In this short article we will cover the basics of seismic horizon interpretation and how this is used to obtain stratigraphic information.

Controlled Source ElectroMagnetic (CSEM) is a proven technique that has a strong future in helping solve certain oil and gas exploration and production challenges, especially when seismic data alone cannot provide a satisfactory answer.

The evolving role of seismic reflection data within offshore site investigation.

The modern vibroseis is a complex, delicately tuned machine. The shaking gets translated into seismic data to provide insights into the subsurface for oil, gas and resource exploration.

Geophysics must change – but it must also remain meaningful.

A new focus on innovation, technology and collaboration for the advancement of marine seismic acquisition is developing.

A Minute to Read: Rock Physics Technology AS take the next step in reservoir characterisation with their own innovative Inverse Rock Physics Modelling method for rock physics driven quantitative seismic interpretation.

The key to all seismic interpretation is the interpreter’s experience and knowledge, so why should artificial intelligence change that? The reality is, it shouldn't.

Some thoughts on the future of marine towed streamer seismic acquisition for offshore oil and gas exploration.

To boldly go where no interpreter has gone before, getting one step closer to achieving the fully automated detection of faults in 3D seismic data.

Seismic detection and Identification of potential hydrocarbon source rock horizons is the first and most important step in the evaluation of frontier basins.

Lightning analysis provides a new geophysical technique, which is safe and cost- effective and has the potential to spark a step change in the geophysical exploration for oil and gas and minerals.

Part 2: Early developments of marine vibrators for geophysical acquisition techniques made by PGS.

Ocean-bottom seismic acquisition is encroaching on the traditional marine streamer market by offering unique, scalable and efficient solutions for exploration and development of oil and gas.
