Small patch seismic offers oil and gas companies a highly efficient and cost-effective solution for exploration and development activities. Its ability to provide a higher resolution image of a specific area makes it an ideal solution for identifying drilling problems and hazards and enabling accurate geosteering. One of the key advantages of this type of […]
Managing and storing contracts can be challenging. Physical contracts can take up a great deal of space in your office and leave the company vulnerable if there is a disaster. Archiving the physical contracts freeze up valuable office space and allows for contracts to be kept in a secure backup location. However, there still needs

In 2019, Silverthorne completed the acquisition of the South Scoop 3D Survey. In this video, John Fortier discusses the pitfalls and challenges of seismic acquisition in one of the most challenging environments. From navigating infrastructure to figuring out how to infill source points, the Scoop surveys were challenging in every aspect. https://vimeo.com/663388539%20
https://vimeo.com/643644263 What is a Coordinate Reference System (CRS)? Definition: A spatial reference system (SRS) or coordinate reference system (CRS) is a coordinate-based local, regional or global system used to locate geographical entities. A spatial reference system defines a specific map projection, as well as transformations between different spatial reference systems. Spatial reference systems are defined
