Seismic imaging is an area characterized by ongoing innovation. Imaging leaders possess the technology platforms, professional expertise, R&D commitment, and experience base to continually push the envelope. Within the ION family, a recognized leader in advanced imaging GX Technology (GXT) provides us with the tools and capabilities to take on the most challenging imaging projects around the world. Whether data was acquired offshore or on land, or whether it was 2D or 3D, we offer advanced imaging services that include:
- Azimuthal velocity analysis to account for subsurface anisotropy that causes seismic velocities to vary as a function of compass direction or azimuth.
- Full-wave imaging, including vector filters to remove source-generated noise, tools to deliver higher bandwidth P-wave signals from single-point sensors like VectorSeis®, and algorithms and workflows for processing converted wave data.
- AVO and inversion tools to predict rock properties, including wavelet-based approaches that overcome the limitations of traditional AVO and extend applications of the technique to harder rocks, deeper horizons, thinly-bedded or fractured reservoirs, and areas with low signal-to-noise ratios.
- 4D imaging solutions that ensure noise suppression, multiple attenuation, data regularization, and amplitude and phase matching across successive, time-lapse surveys.
- Geophysical and reservoir analysis services including AVO- and inversion-based rock properties prediction, pore pressure prediction, well log analysis and attribute modeling, and interpretation services to complement the geophysical analyses undertaken by our oil & gas company customers.
- Vertical Seismic Profiles (VSPs) tools for improving vertical resolution of seismic data around a well, identifying multiples on marine data, delineating faults, and improving subsalt velocity models.
