Viewing 3D seismic data has historically required specialized software packages. And integrating other data into the seismic view for context has been challenging at best. But GOM3 is changing that with new functionality in the Geophysical Addon. As shown in this Geophysical Demo of GOMsmart, a fully interactive view of 3D seismic data, salt, well log curves, reservoirs, boreholes, completion intervals and paleo is now online.
The viewer increases the detail of information available for asset management, in-field development and other reconnaissance, with nothing more than a web browser.
The Ship Shoal 349 field with seismic data. Sand-body reservoirs are colored by the estimated ultimate recovery. Salt is shown in pink. Wells are colored by lithology (yellow for sand to red for shale) where available and white otherwise.
The seismic data and salt can by easily sliced in various directions with simple sliders. Here, salt and seismic data are sliced back to show the sub-salt reservoirs with the lithology values from the mud logs. It is completely interactive and customizable.

The online viewer for Geophysical data builds on top of the 3D Field Viewer and contains all of the same data and features. Clicking on data within the viewer displays available attributes and the Hotlink button (the red lightning bolt) provides access to reports, charts, downloads and well logs.
Clicking the Lithology log in the A18 well to access the Hotlink for more options, such as well logs in its web viewer:
Surfaces at the top of each subseries can be added with the click of a button. These are generated when paleo observations of the subseries appear in six or more wells.

The online viewer is coming as part of the Geophysical Addon, containing all publicly released 2D and 3D seismic data, digital well logs (in 3D), geomarkers, hydrocarbon-bearing zones and mud weight records. Please check out the 3D Geophysical Viewer today. We are very interested in your feedback - contact us here.
The 15th Annual User Conference is less than a month away! The conference is free to attend and will be held April 18th, 2024 at Woodside's offices near the Galleria: Registration is now available here.
The conference is intended for geologists, geophysicists, engineers, land specialists, GIS professionals/techs, and managers. The exchange of ideas and directions for our future development are still the top priority of the conference. Like past conferences, this event will present details about improvements from the past year and a look at future plans. It will also showcase some of the huge additions available since the last conference, particularly the 3D Field Viewer in GOMsmart, large additions to the Geophysical Addon, pay predictions in Shazam and an overhaul of Gulf of Mexico Analytics.
Agenda
Register for the conference here. We look forward to seeing you then.
