CGG GeoSoftware has announced new releases to its application suites: Jason 9.0, Hampson-Russell 10.0 and Insight Earth 3.0.
Jason 9.0 has a new anisotropic inversion tool for analyzing anisotropy for effective well design and optimum production. The relationship between elastic dependence and anisotropy allows quantitative interpretation teams to more accurately characterize reservoirs that have significant anisotropy. Teams can realize the full potential of azimuthal seismic data and take advantage of the reservoir information to define optimum reservoir drilling locations.
Hampson-Russell 10.0 has a new GeoSI tool for geostatistical inversion that helps deliver lithology and other rock property volumes for a better understanding of your reservoir. The new RockSI tool helps users explore the link between rock properties and seismic data for quantitative interpretation.
Within Insight Earth 3.0, CGG GeoSoftware has introduced dip-guided auto-tracking so users can track horizons, faults, salt, canyons and other geological features in 2D, 3D, and curtain slice tracking modes using estimates of dip to properly constrain elements that define the feature. New tight, interactive ‘stopping conditions’ enable the user to impart their geological knowledge on the interpretation and maintain control. Also, complex geologic settings can be interpreted with one auto-tracker.
In addition, CGG has also announced that Sercel has launched GeoTag, an acoustic positioning solution. GeoTag can be used to position all types of ocean bottom cable (OBC), ocean bottom node and transition zone cable systems for seabed seismic surveys in water depths down to 500m.
The GeoTag solution operates using transponders that are attached to the seabed seismic equipment and interrogated by a vessel-based transceiver. The transponders can also be stored on a reel and deployed mechanically when used with OBC systems.
GeoTag is fully scalable for use on small to large seabed crews deploying up to 10,000 acoustic positioning devices.
