The challenge of meeting reserve and production growth targets calls for fresh thinking and revolutionary tools. Today, ION owns one of the most up-to-date seismic data libraries in the industry, consisting of 2D, 3D and full-wave (4C multicomponent) data from around the world. Our Image-Driven approach and customized workflows ensure that we deliver an optimized dataset that is ready for immediate interpretation by our oil & gas company customers.
Our excellence in all areas of advanced image processing, including noise removal, velocity modeling, and pre-stack time and depth migration (PreSTM and PreSDM), guarantees our customers are getting highly differentiated images to help them make informed decisions regarding exploration acreage and future development programs.
The majority of the data libraries licensed by ION consist of ultra-deep 2D lines that oil & gas companies use to better evaluate the evolution of the petroleum system at the basin-level, including identifying source rocks, migration pathways, and play types. In many cases, the availability of geoscience data extends beyond seismic information to include magnetic, gravity, well log, and electromagnetic (EM) information, helping to paint the most comprehensive picture of the subsurface possible.
Known as SPANS, these basin-wide, ultra-deep geophysical data libraries currently exist for major basins worldwide.
