Pre-stack seismic interpretation software for rapid and
accurate prospect generation
Landmark Graphics Corporation, a wholly owned business unit of
Halliburton, announced the release of DecisionSpace Well Seismic
Fusion, a suite of interpretation and analysis tools for predicting
reservoir rock properties from prestack seismic data, synthetic
data and well data.
Working closely with Statoil, Landmark developed Well Seismic Fusion
to leverage the rich information content contained in prestack seismic
data to build earth models and more accurately predict reservoir
lithology and fluids.
This unique technology provides a highly integrated interpretation
environment enabling interpreters and other asset team members to
improve reservoir understanding and dramatically reduce exploration
risk.
"Landmark is committed to working closely with our customers
to develop integrated solutions to address E&P challenges,"
said Andy Lane, president, Landmark. "Well Seismic Fusion delivers
innovative tools that will enable our customers to generate prospects
more rapidly and predict reservoir properties more confidently."
"Prestack seismic data has a dimension of information that
is lost in traditional stacked seismic volumes," said John
Granli, program manger of exploration research, Statoil, "Integrated
access to prestack seismic data is crucial to our ability to more
accurately resolve and predict reservoir fluid and rock properties."
Landmark worked together with Statoil, an industry leader in lithology
and fluid prediction, to develop an integrated approach to prestack
seismic data interpretation that will enable asset teams to achieve
cross discipline synergy and more accurately model and characterize
reservoir properties away from the wellbore. Well Seismic Fusion,
built on Landmark's next generation DecisionSpace(TM) platform,
is integrated with SeisWorks® workflows and OpenWorks® data
management, enabling interpreters to be more productive, reduce
prospect generation cycle time and provide improved risk assessment
for complex prospects.
"Landmark is uniquely positioned to integrate prestack seismic
data into core interpretation workflows," said Murray Roth,
executive vice president, Marketing and Systems, Landmark. "Prestack
seismic interpretation with direct access to well information combined
with the ability to model various reservoir scenarios provides geoscientists
a better way to extract value from seismic data."
