Today it is all about competitive strategic advantage.
The Headwave software will help you drive value and reduce costs in several important areas. By using a software that is capable of interactively visualizing and analyzing even petabytes of data, geoscientists are able to make better decisions under time constraints.

A modern G&G software suite for visualization of large data
The Headwave software is a high-performance geoscience solution. Unlike virtually every other commercial offering, Headwave is perfect for visualization of large data and de-risking using all available data from geology to geophysics to engineering. It provides next-generation capabilities in seismic data compression, real-time visualization and even the analysis of datasets as big as 100TB and beyond.

Third Wave Geoscience Solutions
We call Headwave the “3rd wave” of geoscience software innovation because it breaks with previous generations long entrenched in the market. Headwave brings 21st century capabilities to problems that are simultaneously compute intensive, data intensive and interactive. We provide a platform for geoscience technology development and a suite of shared functionality, making Headwave an ideal hub for connected applications and data. Headwave enables an ecosystem that integrates and augments cross-discipline workflows in a collaborative, commercially supported environment.
A combination of key software innovations —including proprietary data compression and automatic GPU processing with CUDA parallelization from vanilla C++ code —enable on-the-fly calculation and responsive visualization for data sets of unlimited size, encompassing pre- and post-stack seismic attributes and diverse well data. For example, you can browse thousand-fold Offset Vector Tiles with full or restricted azimuth range with substacking on the fly anywhere in a 1600 sq. km survey—all with Headwave, all on a laptop.
Basic horizon and fault interpretation, with horizon auto-tracking on both pre-and -post-stack data, free-form shape interpretation, and logical operations for horizon editing are available now. Headwave’s stratigraphic visualization capabilities for multiple attributes on horizons, in zones phantomed around or between horizons, on free-form shapes, and in probes that need not be aligned with survey coordinates, are unmatched in the industry.

HOW WE DIFFERENTIATE
|
|
| Unlike Everyone Else | Why It Matters |
| Fully interactive at any scale | Reduce “time to first oil” with fewer people |
| Unlimited data size | Work at regional & basin scale. Machine learning needs all the data. |
| Unlimited compute complexity | Required to achieve improvements in e.g. imaging, de-risking & reserve estimates |
| Truly open architecture | Ability to add in-house & 3rd party IP, which also drives adoption |
| Flexible licensing model | Onsite, cloud, hybrid |
| Collaborative development | 3rd Wave will not happen in isolation |

Deliver Results On Time With Higher Quality.
Geoscientists who evaluate opportunities are far too familiar with the typical constraints of traditional software. One of the biggest issues with prospecting is the integration between regional view and prospect evaluation, and the ability to move quickly from one view to the other.
Time critical activities like bid submittals require the ability to rapidly test multiple geological and geophysical models along with their associated assumptions. Traditional software constraints have forced geoscientists to work with partial data and a limited number of models. We have done something about that.
| With Headwave, you can work seamlessly, zooming in and out of very large datasets – from regional reconnaissance to prospect evaluation and back in real time. Work through all your data in context and provide a robust regional story to support the prospect specific evaluation. |
- With smart use of modern technologies, you can work interactively regardless of size or complexity – even hundreds of terabytes of pre- or post-stack data.
- Generate prospects, hunt for analogs or missed pay, using all available data.
- Interpret and build models on-the-fly. Build many more models to quantify uncertainty — and still shorten your overall exploration cycle.
- Combine geoscience creativity with respect to new play types with Headwave’s data-driven methods — and you are one step closer to next-generation prospect generation.
“A Gulf of Mexico survey model-update takes 13-18 hours in currently available commercial software packages. Headwave delivers a significantly more correct result in less than 5 seconds.”
Innovation does matter.
The GoM survey model-update is just one example of how companies will change how they work as they begin to rely on the industry’s only 3rd generation platform.
The last downturn in the oil and gas industry made it clear that the oil price will continue to be under pressure for the foreseeable future, and that oil companies will need to invest in technology that can cut cost, improve efficiency and create value.
This is the case in exploration as well as in drilling and production; it will involve new processing and imaging for a much better understanding of the subsurface, truly modern interpretation software for interactive and effective decision making, new advanced sensor technologies for field monitoring, augmented reality for improved and safer operations and machine learning all across the workflow to complements human expertise.
In the past, only a small number of oil companies have understood the value of involving the exploration teams and technology early in the strategy and portfolio discussion.
In the future, it will be fundamental to success for all companies.
