HOUSTON, TEXAS (Editors at Energy Analytics Institute, 28.Jan.2025) — Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) awarded Viridien a 3-year contract to provide advanced land seismic imaging services at its dedicated processing center (DPC) in Muscat, Oman.
The new contract continues a longstanding collaborative partnership between Viridien and PDO, the French company said 28 Jan. 2025 in an official statement.
Viridien geophysical experts at the Muscat center, its largest DPC worldwide, will work to deploy the most advanced proprietary algorithms to bring step-changes in image quality to PDO’s ever-growing library of seismic data.
Oman land data is characterized by complex near-surface conditions and strong multiples. High-resolution velocity model building, and elastic full-waveform inversion will be key to overcoming these challenges and to enhancing subsurface understanding. Viridien also will address new challenges, such as increased data density, developing land 4D monitoring and reinforcing synergies between seismic imaging and reservoir characterization, the company said.
To support these capabilities, Viridien HPC & Cloud Solutions specialists will deliver the in-house High-Performance Computing (HPC) capacity required to implement the most advanced workflows.
