AI-powered exploration intelligence

Transform seismic uncertainty into investment-grade exploration opportunities through physics-guided prospect validation and machine learning.

Our proprietary workflow reveals direct hydrocarbon indicators (DHI) in invisible reservoirs, the low-amplitude targets that conventional screening overlooks. It works at depths up to 8,000 m, on 3D, 2D and multi-client seismic data. No other team or company offers this capability.

Approach

Trusted science. Practical decisions.

Physics-based

Every result is anchored in rock physics and AVO (amplitude versus offset) theory before any model is trained.

AI-enhanced

Machine learning screens large volumes for the subtle signatures an interpreter cannot scan by hand.

DHI validated

Each lead is checked against its direct hydrocarbon indicator elements and given a confidence score.

Prospect ranked

Validated opportunities are ranked with probabilistic risk, ready for a portfolio decision.

Technology

CoreFlowDDAV™ exploration intelligence, end to end

CoreFlowDDAV™ (Deep Detect AVO Validation) is built to find what conventional screening leaves behind: invisible reservoirs and their DHI elements.

How our workflow differs

Conventional screening CoreFlowDDAV™
What it looks for High-impedance, bright-amplitude opportunities. These carry more risk: they are often water-wet or low-quality reservoir. Invisible reservoirs: low-amplitude targets, extracted together with their DHI elements.
Depth DHI confidence falls away as amplitude weakens with depth. Engineered for targets up to 8,000 m.
Seismic data Usually limited to 3D volumes. 3D and 2D seismic, including multi-client surveys.
Rock type Mostly clastic amplitude plays. Clastic basins with CoreFlowDDAV™; carbonate basins with CoreFlowCDAV.
Regional scale Prospect-by-prospect interpretation. Fast DHI extraction across regional data: 10,000 km² within two months.
What you receive An amplitude anomaly map. A physics-anchored DHI confidence score and a ranked prospect list.
Workflows

Our innovative workflows and where each is used

CoreFlowDDAV™

Deep Detect AVO Validation

Physics-guided AVO and DHI screening for deep clastic targets, with a quantified DHI confidence score.

Use it to find invisible, low-amplitude reservoirs down to 8,000 m on 3D and 2D seismic.

CoreFlowCDAV

Carbonate DHI and fracture screening

DHI and fracture-indicator screening built for the carbonate domain, to 8,000 m.

Use it to detect DHI in porous carbonate capped by tight carbonate, and to separate hydrocarbon-bearing from water-bearing carbonate.

CoreFlowDI

Facies and fluid-signature extraction

Gradient-boosted machine learning that extracts facies and fluid signatures from the seismic.

Use it to define sweet-spot areas once CoreFlowDDAV™ screening has located the opportunity.

CoreFlowDR

Contingency workflow

A reduced-input route for surveys where the far-angle stack is unavailable.

Use it to screen legacy or incomplete data; it delivers about 60% of CoreFlowDDAV™'s DHI opportunity identification.

Stochastic Multi-Scenario Engine

Probabilistic uncertainty simulation

Probabilistic simulation of AVO and elastic response across many rock and fluid scenarios.

Use it to quantify how far the hydrocarbon case can be told apart from brine before committing to a well.

Regional DHI extraction

Basin and multi-client scale

CoreFlowDDAV™ run at regional scale: 10,000 km² within two months.

Use it to screen licence rounds, regional 2D grids and multi-client seismic libraries for DHI leads.
