Uncovering Hidden Value with DDAV Workflow

1. What makes the DDAV workflow unique compared to traditional interpretation methods?
The DDAV workflow is designed to go beyond conventional amplitude interpretation, using advanced AVO Class II/IIp analysis. It enables us to detect subtle hydrocarbon indicators in areas that traditional workflows often dismiss as non-viable.

2. How does DDAV improve exploration success rates?
By identifying overlooked AVO Class II and IIp anomalies, DDAV significantly reduces exploration risks and enhances drilling confidence. This results in higher exploration success rates and better ROI for operators and investors.

3. What level of data is required for DDAV analysis?
DDAV leverages existing multi-client or proprietary seismic data, meaning there’s no need for additional costly acquisition. Our approach extracts more value from your current datasets, accelerating project timelines and maximizing returns.

4. How has DDAV been proven in the field?
Our methodology was successfully applied to some prospects in the offshore Nile Delta, leading to a major gas discovery for low amplitude prospect. This case demonstrates how DDAV can uncover high-potential prospects that traditional methods overlook.

5. Q: Can this workflow be applied outside the Nile Delta or East Mediterranean?
A: Absolutely. The principles behind the workflow — seismic attribute optimization, AVO modeling — are play-agnostic. While proven in the East Mediterranean, it is equally valuable in West African deepwater, Gulf of Mexico, and other frontier basins where subtle anomalies are often missed.

6. How does DDAV contribute to investor confidence?
By providing a transparent, risk-assessed, and prioritized prospect portfolio, DDAV gives decision-makers a reliable foundation for exploration investments. This clarity strengthens investor confidence and accelerates project approvals.

7. What industries and teams benefit from DDAV?
The DDAV workflow is designed for exploration teams, geoscientists, investors, and decision-makers in oil and gas companies. It supports cross-disciplinary collaboration, ensuring geophysical insights translate into economic value.

8. What AVO classes are detectable by traditional workflows versus DDAV?
Traditional workflows primarily identify strong amplitude anomalies, such as AVO Class I and III. DDAV, however, is optimized for subtle, low-amplitude AVO Class II and IIp anomalies—hidden opportunities often missed by conventional interpretation.

9. What is the exploration and economic impact of DDAV?
DDAV identifies overlooked, lower-risk prospects supported by direct hydrocarbon indicators (DHI), reducing dry well risk and optimizing exploration budgets. By uncovering these hidden resources, operators can unlock significant economic value.
