HorizonCube

A HorizonCube consists of a dense set of correlated 3D stratigraphic surfaces. Each horizon in the HorizonCube represents a (relative) geologic time line. Horizons are created either in a model-driven way (stratal / proportional slicing, parallel to upper / lower), or in a data-driven way via a unique dip-steered auto-tracker. To run the data-driven mode a Dip-Steering license is needed. HorizonCubes impact all levels of seismic interpretation. They are used for: 1) detailed geologic model building, 2) low frequency model building for seismic inversions, 3) well correlations and sequence stratigraphic interpretation (SSIS).

Rental prices* per user: € 1.200,00 / month; € 6.000,00 / annum.

Well Correlation Panel

The Well Correlation Panel plugin is used for picking well markers and correlating markers guided by seismic evidence. In combination with the HorizonCube the interpreter can use the HorizonCube slider for detailed seismic-steered correlations.

Rental prices* per user: € 600,00 / month; € 3.000,00 / annum.

SSIS

The SSIS plugin (Sequence Stratigraphic Interpretation System) is an add-on to the HorizonCube. SSIS supports full sequence stratigraphic analysis, including automated Wheeler transforms, systems tracts interpretations and annotations.

Rental prices* per user: € 600,00 / month; € 3.000,00 / annum.

Dip-steering

The dip-steering plugin allows you to create and use "steering cubes". A steering cube contains at every sample position the local dip and azimuth of the seismic events. Applications include: dip-steered filters (median, fault-enhancement), dip-steered attributes (similarity, volume curvature) and dip-steered horizon tracking (HorizonCube plugin).

Rental prices* per user: € 1.200,00 / month; € 6.000,00 / annum.

Neural networks

The Neural network plugin supports supervised and unsupervised neural networks to combine multiple attributes into "meta-attributes". Amongst others TheChimneyCube® and TheFaultCube® can be made with this plugin. Other applications are: seismic facies analysis, pattern recognition, rock-property predictions.

Rental prices* per user: € 1.200,00 / month; € 6.000,00 / annum.

Common Contour Binning

CCB is used to detect subtle hydrocarbon-related seismic anomalies and to accurately pinpoint Gas-Water, Gas-Oil and Oil-Water contacts. CCB has a unique pre-stack option and supports a local option to enhance 4D anomalies.

Rental prices* per user: € 600,00 / month; € 3.000,00 / annum.

Velocity Model Building

Pick velocities from prestack gathers and semblances in vertical update- and horizon-consistent update modules.

Rental prices* per user: € 2.500,00 / month; € 12.500,00 / annum.

SynthRock

SynthRock (new in v4.4) is a forward pseudo-well modeling and probabilistic inversion package. It consists of two modules: a profile module for creating cross-sections from real wells and a stochastic module for generating thousands of probabilistic models. Pre- and post-stack synthetic seismograms are created (optionally with internal multiples) which can be cross-matched against the measured seismic data in a HitCube inversion process to create probability volumes of target properties.

Rental prices* per user: € 1.500,00 / month; € 7.500,00 / annum.

Seismic spectral blueing

Seismic Spectral Blueing optimizes the vertical resolution of seismic data by shaping the seismic spectrum without boosting noise to unacceptable levels.

Rental prices* per user: € 960,00 / month; € 4.800,00 / annum.

Seismic coloured Inversion

Seismic Coloured Inversion enables rapid band-limited acoustic impedance inversion of seismic data.

Rental prices* per user: € 960,00 / month; € 4.800,00 / annum.

Seismic Feature Enhancement

Seismic Feature Enhancement (new in v4.4) is a flat-spot utility that enhances the signal of consistent flat events and reduces the "noise" of the channel reflections.

Rental prices* per user: € 860,00 / month; € 4.300,00 / annum.

Seismic Net Pay

Seismic Net Pay (new in v4.4) is an improved method to estimate net pay from seismic colour inverted data. It generates net pay and net-to-gross maps with uncertainties.

Rental prices* per user: € 960,00 / month; € 4.800,00 / annum.
