LARGEO-ION/GXT

Russia

Located in the capital of the world's second largest oil producer and the largest holder of proven natural gas reserves, Moscow is home to our LARGEO-ION/GXT center, strategically located to deliver a wide range of advanced seismic data processing services to the Russian market.

LARGEO-ION/GXT combines the technological strengths of ION’s GX Technology (GXT) Imaging Solutions group with the local market knowledge and extensive experience of LARGEO. The alliance provides the latest GXT data processing innovations for E&P companies operating in Russia and the CIS, making LARGEO-ION/GXT number one in terms of in-country processing.

Our key capabilities include:

• Statics and data conditioning
• Wide azimuth seismic
• 3D SRME

• Velocity model building
• Kirchhoff imaging algorithms
  • PreSDM
  • PreSTM
• Reverse Time Migration (RTM) 
• Full-wave processing

Shortly after the partnership began in 2008, LARGEO-ION/GXT quickly saw success.  The venture became the first company ever to apply 3D surface-related multiple elimination (3D SRME) to a large scale offshore project (for Rosneft in the Black Sea), a breakthrough that captured the attention of other E&P companies operating in Russia. Bolstered by this early success, we are rapidly expanding our capabilities in preparation for undertaking other complex imaging projects, both offshore and onshore, in Russia and the surrounding regions.

It's with these technological assets and regional expertise that LARGEO-ION/GXT has been critical to extending our global reach into the highly competitive Russian market.
