3d Marine Seismic Survey Design

OMNI 3D seismic survey design software helps you create optimal 2D and 3D designs for land, marine, ocean-bottom cable (OBC), transition zone, vertical seismic profile (VSP), and multicomponent surveys. Advanced analysis modules in the software enable you to examine geometry effects, analyze geometry artifacts, generate synthetics, and build and ray trace 2D and 3D geological models.

With its sophisticated tools, an easy-to-use interface, and versatile multiproject handling, OMNI 3D software helps bridge the gap between E&P asset and acquisition teams. These features make OMNI 3D software the industry standard for geoscientists involved in survey planning, design, QC, and modeling worldwide.

Features and packages

OMNI 3D software is available in two packages:

OMNI 3D Layout

A set of essential tools for acquisition, design, editing, and monitoring.

OMNI 3D Workshop

A comprehensive set of tools for geometry building, editing, and QC as well as advanced analysis in the time or depth domain.

Advantages

Provides advanced analysis modules, including 3D geometry assessments, synthetics, trace quality estimates using 5D interpretation, AVO response, illumination on a subsurface horizon using any survey geometry, and poststack time migration illumination using Fresnel zone binning.
Enables creating 3D geologic models and investigating parameters, model diffractions, reflections, and raypaths.

OMNI 3D software is a 64-bit Microsoft Windows application with annual software releases and regular product updates. It is offered with numerous user resources, including tutorials, movies, common workflows, knowledge-based articles, and new feature documents.

Robust survey design and analysis software

OMNI 3D seismic survey design software is the industry standard seismic survey acquisition design, modeling, and analysis.

Use OMNI 3D Layout for survey planning and acquisition. With flexible tools and easy-to-use wizards, OMNI 3D software helps you make decisions about fundamental parameter selection, survey layout, navigation, and QC station editing for preplot and postplot surveys.

Use OMNI 3D software's design wizards, appropriate for the new or advanced user, to create land, VSP, marine, OBC, and ocean-bottom-node geometries. Design wizards provide statistical information and feedback to the user about the design to alert of any potential problems. In addition to the design wizard, OMNI 3D software offers advanced survey design tools for complex designs.

Overlay unique color, values, and offsets (black lines) for each bin of a sinusoidal design. Red boxes denote the shot stations.

Reflection Analysis: Use this wizard to interactively select a shot and generate rays down to a subsurface horizon. Select one of several data values to display a color map of the emerging rays. As you move your mouse around, the statistics will update accordingly.

Utilize recent Plot View enhancements to compare and document multiple aspects of a survey. Use map boxes in conjunction with custom reports for easy, efficient, standardized reporting.

Build complex 2D geologic models and calculate elastic wave equation (EWE) or acoustic wave equation response using a finite-difference solution.

Investigate survey design parameters such as bin size, offsets, resolution, and imaging effects using the analysis tools within each modeling option.

Describe three-dimensional earth volumes by constructing target, 3D ray, or 3D grid models in OMNI 3D software. Analyze illumination on a subsurface horizon using any survey geometry.
