IHS GeoSyn

GeoSyn™ is a cost-effective 1D and 2D modeling tool designed for geoscientists and asset teams who want to bring geology into seismic interpretation.

GeoSyn is a state of the art 1D and 2D synthetic modeling package. It combines geology and geophysics and allows you to explore what-if scenarios based on structural or stratigraphic concepts.

GeoSyn can be used with the interpretation software of choice, leveraging the following functionality:

Data access: Reads and writes .LAS and .SEGY formats
1D models: Generate synthetics, log displays, crossplots, TD charts
AVO analysis: Model lithology and fluid response to geologic formations
2D model: Generate complex structural or stratigraphic models quickly
Easy Log editing, modeling and derivation (calculator)
View results in time or in depth
Create or import wavelets, tops, checkshot surveys and borehole
Create crossplots, top related velocity

Customer Challenges

	Challenge	Solution
Geoscientist	How do I tie geologic data to the seismic data and then model the log data? How do I model simple to complex geology and see the seismic response in time or depth?	GeoSyn can use proprietary and third-party log data, SEGY and other critical information to create synthetics using its 1D and 2D forward modeling capabilities, which can be viewed in time or depth. It also includes AVO modeling analysis, all in a common, easy-to-use interface.
Geo-technician	How do I generate multiple synthetics to allow the interpreter to quickly incorporate geologic well data with seismic data?	GeoSyn provides the ability to generate synthetics easily and accurately for a large number of wells. These results can be imported into seismic interpretation software, or you can use the tight integration between GeoSyn, Petra and Kingdom for a fully integrated workflow.
