“IP Geophysics maximises your understanding of seismic and well log data, without having to go through long-winded workflows. Complex matters such as sophisticated fluid substitution modelling, creating synthetic seismograms to compare bed boundary depths with seismic data, and acoustic log re-processing and interpretation are all at your fingertips and tightly integrated with the rest of the IP suite.”
Rock Physics
Rock Physics offers an innovative way to depth-match bed boundaries and other markers from log traces to real seismic data. By calculating acoustic impedance from density and sonic logs, then combining it with check-shot (VSP) data, Rock Physics creates a Synthetic Seismogram. Using different input data and filters, you can recompute the synthetic trace to optimise the match with seismic.
Modelling fluid saturations is one of the fundamental objectives in Rock Physics. The Rock Physics module allows you to compute the seismic response for each fluid substitution case, including in-situ fluids; permitting in depth analysis of fluid variations and how such changes would be reflected in the seismic.

Acoustic Waveform Processing
Due to tool limitations and difficult acoustic environments, sonic logs can be challenging to interpret. Yet acoustic data is fundamental to reservoir characterisation. Acoustic Waveforms helps you assess input raw data quality and adjust re-processing parameters to optimise output quality – without long-winded workflows.
- A complete sonic log processing module designed by experienced industry specialists
- Rapidly re-process raw waveforms with your own filters and semblance parameters to derive slowness curves
- QC input data and build confidence in your analysis
- View each tool mode in detail to differentiate genuine and spurious arrivals
- Process and interpret any wireline or LWD acoustic log
- Simple workflows for identifying borehole stress and anisotropy
