Geomodeling for Development and Production Geology

This new e-symposium highlights methodologies for managing the wide range of input data used in geomodeling, and approaches to building fit for purpose 3D geological models. It shows how to design modeling schemes, identify uncertainties and how to apply results to real life field development. It is scheduled on 29 October at 2:00 pm (CST).

Finding a Better Path to Impedance Inversion

The proposed workflow for generating a low-frequency impedance model is superior to the existing methods of low-frequency impedance generation. The quality of the low-frequency impedance model used in the inversion has a pronounced effect on the final impedance result, and thus a superior low-frequency impedance model when used in the inversion process yields a more accurate impedance inversion output.

Care About the Environment? Join DEG

“Don’t you care about the environment?” DEG’s founder and first president – and an AAPG past president and legend – Bruno Hanson directly challenged me with that question.

Tectonic Variation and Structural Evolution of the West Greenland Continental Margin

A seismic interpretation study of reflection profiles was undertaken to identify sedimentary and structural components of the tectonic development of the West Greenland continental margin. The new structural framework reveals a long and complex tectono-stratigraphy and evolution.

Impedance Inversion: Big Aid In Interpretation

Having first examined the post-stack and prestack methods of seismic impedance inversion (May and June 2015 EXPLORER), we now end the three-part series by turning our attention to joint inversion of multicomponent data.

URTeC Embraces the Industry's Emerging Realities

Unconventional resources have changed the exploration and production business and are changing our profession. It’s a change for the better, where today geoscientists and engineers work closely to identify prospective areas, drill them and optimize recovery of hydrocarbons from the reservoir.

Canadian Oil Sands Development – The Risks and Rewards

The chief geologist for a Canadian regulatory agency says the group is working to assess potential risks by better understanding the full geologic framework in the development of oil sands and heavy oil in the province of Alberta.

Impedance Inversion's Value in Interpretation

In last month’s Geophysical Corner `we described the different poststack impedance inversion methods that are available in our seismic industry. In poststack seismic inversion – where there is no mode conversion at normal incidence – it is purely acoustic. P-wave impedance is the only information that can be estimated from poststack inversion of P-wave data.
