Potential Applications of SFD® Surveys
SFD® surveys can be used to:
- Kick start evaluation of new concession blocks or basin areas
- High-grade unexplored acreage
- Evaluate prospectivity of blocks in advance of bid rounds
- Focus and optimize the scope of future seismic surveys
- Provide additional verification or validation of prospects identified by seismic and other geophysical methods
Sample use cases shown below: Prospect Identification and Prospect Verification
Frontier exploration, licensing and technical evaluation areas
- Identify areas of best reservoir potential to focus seismic acquisition
- Enable decisions on purchasing or relinquishing lands
- When there is no time to acquire seismic prior to bidding, SFD® can rapidly evaluate potential bid blocks and
provide a competitive edge
Re-evaluation of potential in mature areas
- Identify areas with remaining reservoir potential
- Focus resources and data purchase decisions
Lead generation and prospect evaluation
- SFD® is effective in any geologic settings, both onshore and offshore
- Enables re-evaluation of seismic to envision other types of plays that would normally be bypassed
- Provide independent verification of reservoir potential
- Correlate data to known reservoir analogs
