TGS and Halliburton team up to improve seismic reservoir monitoring

TGS and Halliburton have partnered up to bring advanced seismic imaging to fiber optic sensing.

The companies stated that they will provide operators with advanced insight to determine their reservoir potential for oil and gas production or carbon storage.

The Halliburton FiberVSP and Odassea distributed acoustic sensing solutions will integrate TGS’s seismic imaging workflows that process the entire seismic wavefield to generate high-resolution reservoir images.

“This solution enables enhanced reservoir understanding for our customers with a lower total cost of ownership relative to conventional 4D seismic”, said Jan Schoolmeesters, executive vice president of TGS.

“For TGS, this collaboration meets our strategic initiatives to increase our focus on technology and mature basins, capture more repeatable business, and offer customers cost-efficient new energy solutions like carbon storage monitoring”.

Work is underway to deliver this combined solution for multiple onshore and offshore reservoir monitoring projects, the companies said.
