M-OSRP strategy and plan for continued high impact seismic development and delivery,11/27/18

Posted on November 28, 2018

Dear Sponsors, Colleagues and Friends,

Thanks to the outstanding and much appreciated efforts of my colleague Dr. Chao Ma, the original links below to key technical videos have now been placed on social media sites in China to allow for broader access and viewing .

I hope that you find these original links and the new China available links and their presentations to be useful, informative and worthwhile.

I suggest that a good place to start would be with the video in the first link. It provides a new and comprehensive perspective on primaries and multiples and the role they play for structure determination and amplitude analysis. It describes the practical consequence of this new perspective and how that guides and determines M-OSRP resource allocation. The goal is to be most impactful in delivering new and more effective capability for improving the exploration drill success rate, and the placement of appraisal and development wells.

I hope that you will find it interesting and worthwhile. We look forward to staying in touch.

Warmest and very best wishes for this Joyful Holiday Season and for a Healthy and Happy New Year,

Arthur

Dear Sponsors, Colleagues and Friends,

I hope that this note finds you very well.

I was honored and privileged to receive an invitation from Ecopetrol to write a journal article and to present a talk for the special event: Science, Technology and Future (CT& F) Special Edition on Seismic Migration and Inversion of the CT&F Journal on December 9, 2018 in Bogota Colombia.

The title of the article and presentation is:

‘Direct and indirect inversion and a new and comprehensive perspective on the role of primaries and multiples in seismic data processing for structure determination and amplitude analysis’.

I hope that you find the attached article, and the video presentation in the link below, to be worthwhile, informative and interesting. The video begins by asking ‘Why do we need a new perspective?’ ‘What exactly is new?’ And what are the practical benefits and value and resource allocation and E&P research strategy implications?’
