Our Value

"The quality and accuracy of your final inversion products has helped Chevron Canada and its partners successfully penetrate our desired targets on a number of newly drilled wells in offshore Newfoundland."—Chevron

"During the past two years, the Workbench has been used to generate 3D models for a number of BP prospects around the world. Some of these models have subsequently proven to have added value, through significantly reduced exploitation costs, because of the accuracy (in estimation of geometry and rock properties) of the subsurface reservoir description."—BP Exploration

"I also had the privilege to see the results of a simultaneous inversion that your company provided for another group within bp. The results appeared to be extremely accurate based on ties with existing wells and have led to a much higher level of understanding of the geology of the area."—BP Canada Energy Company

"Following analysis of the results of the new inversion undertaken on line AQ-094-94 (your report dated July 15th, 1996), we were able to successfully predict the facies development of four reservoir sands that would be encountered by a step-out well. Being aware of the relatively subtle distinction between respective facies types (having visited analogous outcrop exposures in Utah), I regard this as a considerable achievement."—Apex Petroleum

"As a test, we provided Jason with four wells, along with seismic data and regional markers from our Landmark interpretation system, and asked for predictions of pay thickness on the other nine wells in the field. To properly estimate sand thickness above the water contact requires correct structural as well as stratigraphic predictions. As the attached spreadsheet shows, using the Geoscience Workbench to combine the geology and geophysics reduced the standard (rms) error in predictions of glauconite pay thickness by almost 50%. This makes the Jason method a very useful tool in both reducing risk and in integrating geology and geophysics, enabling us to make more accurate and timely technical decisions."—Fletcher Challenge Energy Canada

"Through the integrating of the inversion data set and our conventional interpretation we feel that a better understanding of the subtle complexities associated with the play types encountered in our Argentinean properties has been reached."—AEC International

Seismic Reservoir Characterization Software

"Properly utilized, the Geoscience Workbench can often provide superior estimates of reservoir geometry, thickness, and quality, compared to more traditional seismic structural and amplitude interpretation methods."—BP Exploration

"Based on the confidence we have in the Fugro-Jason work we have used your products to specifically target and find the most prolific sand packages in the prospective area."—Chevron

The Geoscience Workbench software packages, along with our interpretation, well log analysis, and mapping system, creates a platform for integrating geoscience, petrophysics and engineering, with the Workbench providing the link between the time and depth domains. Such integration makes the maximum use of all available data, enabling Mitchell to make more timely technical decisions."—Mitchell Energy

"I am also very much impressed by the scientific approaches that Jason Houston adopted for each project—highly efficient team work from geologists, geophysicists, and petrophysicists with also strict peer-reviewed quality control."—Columbia University

"I used the Jason system personally for several different interpretation and seismic analysis projects in the Gulf of Mexico and found the software to be both reliable and powerful. The software provided virtually all of the tools I needed to analyze my seismic data."—BP Canada Energy Company

"BP Exploration has been using the Jason Geoscience Workbench globally, including the Gulf of Mexico, since it was initially released in 1993. We have found that it offers significant advantages to interpreters in exploration and prospect appraisal/development. Subsurface acoustic impedance models, derived from seismic data, well logs, and geologic constraints, provide a more easily understood basis for multi-disciplinary teams to describe and simulate the performance of hydrocarbon reservoirs. The Geoscience Workbench is currently the most comprehensive software tool available for building such models."—BP Exploration

"The data link between Jason and other software is very good and it makes the job easier."—Pertamina

"Mitchell has used Jason products in its core areas of North Texas, East Texas and the Gulf Coast to assist interpretation of producing properties. Results from these efforts have led us to a wider application of this technology in our exploration ventures."—Mitchell Energy

"I can with satisfaction say that the join efforts of your teams resulted in generation of a good geological and geophysical basis for further exploration. Skillful and consistent integration of the research teams out of the Fugro Geoscience GmbH Moscow office, Fugro Robertson Houston and Wales offices lead up to synergy of their professional knowledge, extensive experience and combination of different geological and geophysical disciplines."—Rosneft Kamchatneftegaz Project

Petrophysics and Rock Physics Software

"For our business, the multi-well capability is very powerful. We can literally process thousands of wells at one time. PowerLog's multi-well capability is far superior to any other program that I have seen to date. We just finished a 100-well project in four days. That's the power of PowerLog for you!"—Jim Wallace, Principal and Petrophysicist, Hunt Wallace and Associates

"With its user programming, data editing, multi-well interpretation and batch processing capabilities considered, PowerLog is perhaps the best value-for-the-dollar of any formation evaluation software product on the market today."—Paul Connolly, Chief Petrophysicist, EOG Resources Houston

"Petrophysicists are true power users. They like creating their own programs and adding user defined algorithms, both proprietary and commercial. They like the Synthetic Curve Generator for data reconstruction, particularly in wash-out conditions. And they like the linear matrix inversion lithology and porosity modeling capability of Statmin."—Jim Wallace, Principal and Petrophysicist, Hunt Wallace and Associates

"I have used many major commercial packages, and a few proprietary petrophysical computation systems. I believe PowerLog is a collection of many best features of these packages."—Doug Sharp, Petrophysical Engineering Specialist, EOG Resources Denver

Our Services

"The objectives of the inversion study were the characterization of the reservoir, leading to estimations of porosity and the hydrocarbon in place volumes. The contractor had to contend with an old seismic dataset comprising several vintages of data. The project was carried out efficiently and within time and we had excellent rapport with, and assistance from, the contractor at all stages. Within the limits imposed by the dataset, we had full confidence in the technical outcome of the project."—Petrel Resources PLC

"Since receiving the inverted dataset, we have successfully used it to identify potential targets and their geometries. Additionally, we feel that Fugro-Jason did an excellent job at inverting data that was problematic during the initial processing....The quality of the final product reflects the level of commitment and ownership of the project that we have come to expect from Fugro-Jason. The deliverable was certainly top-tier."—Chevron

"Results of the first exploration well on the Kamchatka offshore are the best recognition of your team efforts, which confirmed correctness of many of your geological forecasts, high precision of the structural mapping, reasonable caution and substantiation of the seismic facies determination; same is true for the prospects and risk analysis."—Rosneft Kamchatneftegaz Project

"Total S.A. has been using Fugro-Jason services for several inversion (post-stack, pre-stack, 4D) projects during the past 6 years. The combination of professional, open-minded, adaptable consultants with a versatile and powerful Workbench software package made the projects quite successful. Thanks to a close cooperation with Leidschendam head-office new workflows have been jointly developed to improve inversion results, in specific environments."—Total S.A.

"The frequent interactions and exchanges of ideas between your staff and the earth science staff at Chevron as well as your careful attention to detail and the robust and credible nature of your algorithms and products were the keys to the positive end results."—Chevron

"RockMod® combines geologic information with AVA sensitivity analysis techniques and pre-stack stochastic inversion, making it possible to substantially reduce development risk associated with conventional and non-conventional reservoirs. With RockMod, Fugro-Jason remains at the forefront of new reservoir modeling technologies."—Carlos Torres-Verdin, Director, Formation Evaluation Consortium, University of Texas at Austin

"LUKOIL is very happy to work with Fugro-Jason. I think that algorithms and techniques developed by Fugro-Jason are the most systematic approach to reservoir characterization.”—LUKOIL

"You and your company provided exceptional service whenever I needed assistance in finding out about new options and products within the software."—BP Canada Energy Company

"Like most resource companies, our geoscience staff is limited in the amount of time they can spend adding additional technology to their work. We were extremely pleased in how easy it was to outsource this work to Jason, and with the turnaround time we received. To be able to simply provide a tar backup of the Landmark project, and receive ready to use Landmark 3dv files back, means our staff can spend less time dealing with data issues and more time developing quality drilling locations."—Fletcher Challenge Energy Canada

"We would like to take this opportunity to express, in writing, our appreciation for the inversion work carried out by Jason on the Sawan Field last year. We have drilled a well Sawan-5 based upon the inversion results. This is a successful well and results are as predicted by your inversion. We look forward to working together again in the future using our combined expertise to increase our overall success."—OMV Pakistan
