Abstract: Systems and methods for enhancing the resolution of a seismic data image displayed on a face of a sampling probe. The enhanced image represents a maximum resolution of at least a portion of the seismic data image. The seismic data image is enhanced by extracting seismic data that are perpendicular to a reflection surface that is closest to a center of the sampling probe and positioning the extracted seismic data in a visible planar face of the sampling probe.

Abstract: Systems and methods for optimization of real time production operations. In one embodiment, a moving time horizon based parametric model provides fast predictions for production optimization in a short-term framework. In another embodiment, multiple technologies are selected in connection with asset performance workflows that are uniquely implemented in a multi-phase approach.

Abstract: Systems and methods for computing a variogram model, which utilize a variogram map and a rose diagram to compute the model.

Abstract: Systems and methods for accessing functional interface properties for data objects through a value map. The value map may or may not be visible at the client interface.

Abstract: Systems and methods for imaging a volume-of-interest, which may include an object or point of interest to be analyzed in a display of three-dimensional data.

Abstract: Irregular volumes within one or more three-dimensional volume datasets are identified and extracted in response to criteria. The processing involves automatically finding a seed voxel or seed cell that0 meets the criteria and thus belongs to an irregular volume of interest, and then identifying cells related to the seed cell by one or more predetermined relationships that are therefore also to be grouped into that irregular volume. Information, which can be of any suitable type, identifying each such cell as being related to other cells and belonging to an irregular volume is stored in a suitable data structure. The location or similar neighborhood information and other data describing properties or attributes of the identified cell are also stored. Because the irregular volumes are extracted and pre-processed in this manner, operations including rendering them on a display and performing Boolean and arithmetic operations on them can readily be performed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for visualizing multiple volumes of three-dimensional data. A graphics card is used for voxel intermixing, pixel intermixing and image intermixing, which produces a final-combined image of the three-dimensional data in real time.

Abstract: Systems and methods for selectively imaging objects in a display of multiple three-dimensional data-objects. Further features include the display of objects and the intersection of objects removed from the display with various types of visualization surfaces for removing data that obstructs the display of objects of interest.

Abstract: A system and methods are disclosed for automatically approximating an editable surface from a 3D data set or a 3D point set, which may be imaged in the form of a NURBS surface.

Abstract: Systems and methods for imaging waveform volumes. An image of the waveform volume may be drawn on a display device as a two-dimensional image or a three-dimensional image of a sampling probe and redrawn in real-time at interactive rates using a graphics accelerator or a graphics card. The image of the waveform volume may also include seismic-data traces that are color-filled according to texture coordinates for pixels on the display device that intersect the waveform volume.

Abstract: A system and method for uniquely identifying seismic data sets, wherein the system and method associate a unique seismic data set identifier with a seismic data set, wherein the unique seismic data set identifier identifies the seismic data set by being different from all other unique seismic data set identifiers associated with other seismic data sets. The unique seismic data set identifier for the seismic data set is published within a directory, thus allowing the seismic data set to be found within a computer system or network of systems by the unique seismic data set identifier that is associated with the seismic data set.
