Workshop 8

Unveiling the Unseen: Embracing AI’s Power in Interpretation. Monday June 10th | Room 11

Convenors

  • Anastasiia Jacobsen (Bluware)
  • Anita Torabi (University of Oslo)
  • Alessandro Manini (Santos)
  • Brian Eslick (Total Energies)
  • Cyrille Reiser (PGS)
  • James Lowell (Geoteric)

Description

During the workshop, we will review and debate the fusion of human expertise and cutting-edge AI advancements into our entire workflows. Explore seismic interpretation mysteries, reservoir characterisation, and more. Join us for a very engaging workshop that redefines exploration & production and shapes the future of interpretation.

Sub-Topics that will be covered in the workshop:

  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) for:
    • Seismic Data Conditioning
    • Stratigraphic & Fault interpretation
    • Reservoir Properties Estimation 
    • Energy Transition: CCS, Wind
  • Seismic Data Augmentation
  • Methods to validate the result
  • Pitfalls in AI for Seismic Interpretation
  • AI-compatible Data format & Data structure
  • Human and AI: who is better at what?

Participant Profile

Interpreters, quantitative interpretation specialist-geoscientists, management interested in getting a broader understanding how AI fits into the wider scope of interpretation.

Industry and academia background are very welcome as well as people without a specific background in AI or even interpretation who want to know more about this fast developing field of our industry. We invite participants to actively contribute through sharing their experience with case studies, results, algorithms, ..
