SeisSense™ 2D to 3D transforms legacy 2D seismic data into a simulated 3D volume by applying geophysical algorithms and smart gridding. This supports early-stage structural interpretation when 3D acquisition is not available or viable.
Overview
Business Challenge
In many regions, only 2D seismic lines are available, making it difficult to visualize subsurface structures in 3D. Drilling decisions using only 2D data carry higher risk, while 3D acquisition is costly and time-intensive.
Business Objective
To enable interpreters and planners to generate 3D-like views from legacy 2D datasets, helping accelerate field evaluations and improve reservoir understanding.
Solution
SeisSense™ 2D to 3D provides:
- Grid-based volume construction from intersecting 2D lines
- Time-depth alignment and velocity modelling
- Support for pseudo-3D visualization with inline/crossline views
- Interoperability with 3D interpretation software
Business Value
Implementing the solution leads to several benefits:
- Reduces exploration risk with early 3D insights
- Maximizes value from existing 2D data archives
- Avoids unnecessary early 3D acquisition costs
- Accelerates subsurface evaluations and planning cycles
