The geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) and its benefits in abating unfavourable climate change have existed for decades. Even though the development of technical solutions has been slow, there has been some progress in key areas including several storage projects around the world ...

Quantifying and classifying pore systems in carbonates is notoriously challenging, particularly in rocks associated with complex diagenetic histories. Here we report novel computed tomography (CT) core and thin section image analyses through key reservoir intervals in the Buah Formation and Khufai Formation, both part ...

For subsurface commercial ventures or environmental projects that rely on maps of faulted horizons, accurate maps are fundamental. Fault topology provides an ideal tool for analysis of connectivity of fault systems. The data required to undertake the analysis is straightforward to extract from fault ...

Ocean Bottom Node acquisition is known to improve seismic velocity model building and imaging, especially for deep and complex targets. Due to cost considerations, OBN surveys are typically only acquired around the production field, using a relatively dense receiver grid. At the exploration phase ...

Offshore Cameroon is a proven petroleum province with commercial production from the Douala Kribi-Campo Basin (DKC) and the prolific Rio del Rey Basin (RDR). The recent joint cooperation agreement between Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea will lead to the development of the Yoyo and Yolanda ...

We evaluate how two-dimensional (2D) seismic and controlled source electromagnetic (CSEM) imaging, both vintage and modern, might help improve geological understanding of, and exploration for, SMS deposits along part of the Mohns Ridge segment of the ultraslow-spreading Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge. Mohns Ridge has been ...

AI capabilities are evolving and helping optimize workflows and aiding E&Ps with the vast troves of data they collect daily.

The Atlantis Field has gone through more than two decades of continuous seismic imaging efforts, during which time many innovative technologies were incubated, the most recent one being the successful application of full-waveform inversion (FWI) in salt environments. This technique led to a significant ...

The Gulf of Mexico (GoM) is one of the most prolific oil and gas producing provinces in the world. The Mad Dog Field, like many large deepwater fields in the GoM, is subsalt. The geometric complexity of the overlying salt causes extremely variable image ...
