Wednesday, November 9, 2011, London, The Geological Society

2nd Finding Petroleum event on onshore seismic

Offshore, 3D and 4D seismic have transformed the way we approach both exploration and reservoir management.

Onshore, we are 20 years behind. The key question is: can we escape from the high Costs and Safety risks of cable-based seismic onshore?

There now seem to be at least 3 promising avenues:

that promise a 'disruptive transition'.
As you will gather, we forsee major changes in the world of onshore seismic: in particular, we are advancing the notion of "Total Seismic" in which conventional 3D and 4D, permanent monitoring, passive seismic and the recording of micro-seismic data are integrated to yield a sub-surface image.

This Forum is designed for oil & gas companies looking to find out how they can transform their onshore operations - and for seismic and technology companies with new ideas, new approaches, new technologies to explain what they have.

Future-seismic: how universal hardware will improve our ability to find oil

 Talk Description.
If one were to judge the science of geophysics by its demonstrated ability to keep the planet topped up with new hydrocarbon reserves, then it would receive high marks and rank as one of the most successful practical branches of science known to man. However, in terms of reflection seismology at least, if one were to examine the field by how intelligently it has used the wide array of technologies that has been at its disposal for the last few decades, then it would receive a “could do better”. The exciting news is that there are signs that it is indeed now getting round to doing better and will do even better in the future.

Whereas, previously, technologies tended to be classified in well-defined compartments of operational capability with little overlap, the modern era sees that more flexibility is both necessary and possible. Thus, old hardware which previously was good just for one of two types of operation is now being replaced by products which can be used over a spectrum of requirements. Ever more new systems are being given a chance to prove their worth, and there are no signs that the industry will revert to its narrow and semi-monopolist ways.

One area which helped get this era into full swing was the realisation that large numbers of independent sources operating under some form of smart programmable rule based control could give improvements in productivity and data quality not dreamed of before. The next logical step was to give similar independence to recording channels as well, so as not to be restricted by cable, forced geometry or minimal functionality. This not only started to make active acquisition more efficient but also allowed the newer but rapidly growing markets for passive and microseismic monitoring to benefit from advances in other areas of instrumentation.

All such inter-linking technologies are part of what is being called "future-seismic". It is an approach where solving problems of geophysical acquisition is now far less restricted by the weakness of some single subsystem. But even more, it is where items of new versatile hardware can be used for tasks which were not even thought of at the time of their design.

If we actively learn how to embrace these less restrictive technologies, it may be that at some time in the future, the industry will come to consider this period as a true Renaissance in exploration; the point when the generation of novel ideas and products was at its zenith. Geophysicists will no longer be limited by hardware, just their imaginations.

This opening talk investigates the technologies that got us this far, and those likely to take us much further.

Michael Lambert - President and Chief Operating Officer - Wireless Seismic

Wireless Progresses!

 Talk Description.
“Wireless Progresses!” Roy Kligfield (CEO)& Mick Lambert (COO)--Wireless Seismic, Inc.

The application of wireless technology to the oil industry has substantially lagged behind its adoption in the cellular telecommunications industry. Wireless technology is best known to consumers through the success of GSM and CDMA air interface protocols and networks to serve hundreds of millions of users throughout the world with a reliable and scalable service offering. Land seismic acquisition, however, has traditionally relied on the use of cables to power the acquisition instruments, and to transport the seismic data to a central location through cabled telemetry protocols. Land seismic acquisition has long been handicapped by the logistical issues relating to the use of cables to connect acquisition instruments. The problems of deploying and maintaining cabled networks, re-locating cables in order to move the spread, repairing cables—have acted as constraints on the growth in size and scope of land seismic acquisition projects worldwide.

In the recent past, two approaches are being adapted in order to overcome these barriers: First, instruments are being deployed as “dumb” nodes whose data has to be collected, harvested and transcribed in order to make it ready for processing; and second, instruments are being deployed with the capability to wirelessly transport the seismic data to a central location in real time. Whereas the nodal approach has been successful at eliminating the use of cables, it unfortunately introduces the need to visit the instruments physically, to collect (harvest) the data from the instruments, and to prepare the downloaded data (transcription) for input into industry standard formats. And most notable of all, the nodal approach precludes any chance of viewing the seismic data itself (not just the quality control parameters of the data) in real time—one of the major advantages of using a cabled system.

Wireless Seismic has introduced a solution to the marketplace that both eliminates the cables while preserving the real-time nature of the seismic data collection, and doing so with an architecture that is designed to scale-up to very high channel count systems. This presentation reviews the initial results of field deployments using this architecture in both remote and urban environments. A review of some of the system capabilities and limitations in terms of network throughputs, radio interference issues in urban environments, and the use of different sources will be given. Based on its initial deployments, it is believed that the solution is entirely capable of being scaled up in the near future to support the large channel counts demanded in land seismic operations.

Mr. Lambert joined Wireless Seismic in December 2010 after serving as President for Ikon Science Americas Inc. Before serving with Ikon, Mr. Lambert spent 16 years as President and CEO of GX Technology Corporation (GXT), building GXT into a top-tier provider of advanced subsurface imaging services and basin-scale, multi-client, seismic surveys. Mick's seismic experience before GXT included nine years with Seiscom Delta and four years with CogniSeis Development.

Wireless Seismic
Wireless Seismic, Inc. was founded in 2006 with a single purpose: to design and develop a wireless recording system that collects and transmits seismic data in real time. Today, Wireless seismic's second generation system - the RT System 2 - is a reality. In the seismic data acquisition system marketplace of conventional cable systems and new nodal cable-less systems, it is the only wireless system capable of scaling to 10,000 + channels that can make that claim.

3D seismic onshore: should the transition be disruptive?

 Talk Description.
3D seismic onshore: should the transition be disruptive?


Over the last ten years cable systems have improved tremendously to provide all the necessary tools for cost-effective land acquisition in most environments. Compared to the systems of the past century, the weight of field equipment has been divided by ten and its power consumption by three. The heavy strings of geophones are being gradually replaced by single digital sensors based on tiny MEMS accelerometers. In open areas, data from large spread (up to 200 km²) and very high channel-count (up to 100,000) configurations are recorded and quality controlled in real-time via multi-path cable telemetry. With the advent of GPS timing, cableless systems have been developed to complement or replace cable systems in difficult-to-access or environmentally sensitive areas. Today, a compact PC-based central unit is able to manage from the recorder a hybrid cable and cableless spread. On a day-to-day basis, it will complete a single shot-point file (SegD) combining data from both systems in a consistent manner. On the source side, multiple fleets made up of a single vibrator (up to 18) are managed simultaneously, providing an enormous increase in productivity (up to 45,000 records per day). All these shots can be used to acquire at the same time as the surface seismic program 3D VSP’s using long-array borehole tools (100 x 3C levels, 1.5 km).
As a result of these constant improvements, land acquisition has overtaken marine acquisition in terms of productivity, data density and azimuthal distribution. More sources can be used thanks to signal coding (sweep) and to the lower price of vibrators compared to vessels. On the receiver side, active spreads may encompass up to ten times the amount of channels than the typical high-capacity configuration of towed streamers. With the sources shooting at the middle of a high aspect ratio onshore receiver template a regular full-azimuth distribution of the ray paths can easily be obtained. The total wavefield (PP + PS waves) is often recorded using affordable 3C accelerometers. As a result, the daily record productivity on land (more than 200 million traces and 2TB of data) is getting significantly higher than in marine and the cost by trace is getting lower (e.g. $0.0045 vs. $0.0068 for comparable large land and marine wide azimuth surveys). However, due to complex terrain and heterogeneous weathering zone, the signal-to-noise ratio of land data is highly degraded requiring many more traces per surface unit to obtain comparable image quality to marine data. This explains why the cost per square kilometer on land can be 10 times or even 70 times (depending on terrain conditions) more expensive than at sea.
Could a “disruptive transition” make a dramatic cost reduction possible for land seismic when acquisition equipment and methodology are already more efficient than in marine? At both ends of a highly segmented onshore market signs are more or less encouraging. The many benefits of cableless systems have been demonstrated, for example in the sweet spot delineation of unconventional reservoirs in populated areas where often radio systems were previously used. However, these advantages do not necessarily apply to the high-end market for which clients require very dense datasets (up to 50 million traces per km²) over large areas. This segment requires moving spreads with high channel count to image the complex subsurface, illuminate deep targets or to improve the frequency content at the reservoir levels. Handling so many independent cableless stations (several tens of thousands), each one connected to a battery and requiring specific data harvesting and QC, is not yet convenient. Looking forward, only advanced cable systems can pave the way towards the one million channel acquisition system as required by some clients in a near future (10 years?). However, this will not be at the same price, with the same weight and manpower as today’s surveys. Due to the physical barriers specific to the onshore environment, we should not expect the same quality on land to be available for the same price as at sea.

Dukhan 3D: An ultra high density, full wide azimuth seismic survey for the future

 Talk Description.
This paper presents a case study on the logistics and acquisition of an ultra high density and full wide azimuth 3D seismic survey across the Dukhan field in Qatar. This survey represents a step change in seismic data acquisition with greatly enhanced data quality by full wide azimuth and very dense spatial sampling. It is expected that this survey will set an industry standard for seismic acquisition leading to improved field redevelopment.

The Dukhan field is a large oil field in Qatar established in 1941, it contains over 700 wells producing from 4 major reservoirs. It has a rather complex history of production & development strategies; starting with natural pressure depletion for more than 20 years, followed by power water injection since 1989 and gas cap cycling since 1998. As other large mature Middle East oil fields, Dukhan also witnessed large changes in technology over the last 60 years.

In order to maximize the long term economic recovery from the field, QP is committed to applying leading edge but fit for purpose technologies. New, state of the art, 3D seismic data combined with updated reservoir models will enable QP to continue the development of Dukhan field for many years to come.
Jean-Jacques Postel is currently Senior Vice President in charge of Technology and Engineering for the Land Division at CGGVeritas.

LGO Energy's operations comprise of four main Trinidad assets; the Goudron Field, the Icacos Field, the Cedros Peninsular leases, and Beach Oilfield Limited (BOLT) leases which include the Bonasse Field.

The Goudron Field (LGO 100%) lies between the East Moruga and Beach-Marcelle fields in south-eastern Trinidad and has direct access to the Petrotrin oil export pipeline to the Pointe-a-Pierre refinery in western Trinidad. The field was originally discovered by Trinidad Leaseholders Limited in 1927 and was largely developed by Texaco between 1956 and 1986, when ownership passed to Petrotrin and its predecessors. A field reactivation contract, Incremental Production Service Contract (IPSC), was signed in late 2009 and the contract acquired by LGO in October 2012. Since then LGO has reactivated over 70 wells and drilled 15 new deep production wells and is gearing up for an infill program of up to 70 new shallow wells and a waterflood EOR of the deeper reservoir. LGO's recent drilling has increased the oil in place estimate substantially and now stands at close to 1 billion barrels.

The Icacos Oilfield (LGO 50%, Touchstone 50%) lies on the SW Peninsular (SWP) of Trinidad and is surrounded by a number of LGO's 100% owned petroleum leases. The BOLT leases also lie within Trinidad's south-west peninsular and taken together LGO has a dominate land position in a major underexploited part of the East Venezuelan oil belt. LGO has recently acquired a country-wide FTG gravity survey as well as 3D seismic and soil geochemistry data in the SWP and has defined significant undrilled prospectivity.
