Paradigm offers a comprehensive yet flexible seismic interpretation and visualization system for projects scaling from basin to prospect and reservoir, from exploration field to development field, and from a single user on a laptop to multi-disciplinary teams of geoscientists, petrophysicists and drilling engineers.
The system, SeisEarth®, is especially designed to handle very large 2D and 3D seismic surveys containing multiple well databases, through the use of efficient volume roaming, automatic picking, and high levels of interactivity. |
A simple, intuitive user interface and a highly ergonomic design make SeisEarth easy to learn and even easier to use. Section, map and 3D views share the same data, and it is possible to select the best view for the task at hand. The interactivity and consistency of use between the main windows accelerate the interpretation process and enable interpreters to easily perform comprehensive analyses involving many datasets.
SeisEarth has been designed to work with modern workstations, in which high-speed 3D graphics (GPU), very large memory, and multiple CPUs are the norm. Advanced volume roaming and caching technologies feed data from disk, rather than storing it in computer memory. With today’s huge datasets, the volume roaming technique enables users to scan large amounts of data quickly and then load only the focus area into shared memory for active work. Alternatively, users may choose to load data into memory and work on all or part of the data.

-
Data sharing provides a framework for effective geoscience collaboration
-
Regional scale interpretation allows insights that are not possible from multiple separate surveys.
-
Advanced connectivity technologies enable access to seismic, interpretation and well data, as well as integration with modeling, pre-stack data and petrophysics.
-
User interface customization makes workflows more efficient with less button clicking
-
Computer assistance for repetitive tasks reduces fatigue, enhances productivity and decreases risk of injury.
-
Takes full advantage of the high-speed graphics, large memory, and fast connectivity of modern workstations, to enable the interpretation of large and numerous seismic surveys on a personal workstation.
-
Volume roaming allows interpretation of multi-attribute surveys larger than workstation memory.
-
Embedded well planning (Sysdrill Designer) enables quick and easy well planning by the geoscientist.

-
A simple, intuitive user interface: Easy to access, display and manipulate project data
-
3D Canvas, Base Map and Section windows: Closely coupled via inter-process communication, so that all three windows can be used together, sharing line selection, seismic data in shared memory, interpretation and cursors
-
Ergonomic design with customizable toolbars, hot keys, user defaults and mouse-driven access to parameters
-
Automation of repetitive interpretation tasks such as horizon and fault propagation, fault contact generation, fault outline and surface boundary generation
-
Embedded attribute generation
-
Multi-survey mis-tie correction for time, phase and amplitude
-
Support for huge amounts of data, including large 3D seismic data sets, large 2D seismic surveys, numerous seismic surveys, and multiple well databases
-
Support for both post-stack and pre-stack seismic data
-
Support for sparse brick files: Reduces disk space, memory consumption, and the time needed to load data into memory.
-
Interpretation data management: A single entry-point for viewing, creating, and managing all interpretation data objects belonging to a project and its surveys. Includes tools for editing attributes and copying data from one survey to another.
-
Well data management: A single entry-point for viewing and manipulating all well data assigned to a project
-
Full support for simultaneous multi-user interpretation. Regional projects can be created using seismic interpretation from local projects without creating copies. Independent interpretation teams can share seismic and well data bases while maintaining separate seismic and well interpretation data bases.
