About GeoSyn 2D

GeoSyn 2D is a two-dimensional seismic modeling program designed to quickly turn cross section depth models into pseudo seismic sections. With complete depth and time perspective, geoscientists have the ability to build structural and stratigraphic models using IHS Digital Logs or LAS files.

Multiple combinations of reservoir properties and geometries can produce the same seismic signature. Using GeoSyn 2D allows you to generate multiple scenarios of petrophysical changes in the subsurface and determine the relationship between seismic data and those subsurface changes.

Using GeoSyn 2D you can:

  • Predict petrophysical and reservoir features of interest such as lithology, fluid composition, porosity from seismic data Predict petrophysical and reservoir features of interest such as lithology, fluid composition, porosity from seismic data.
  • Understand the sensitivity of seismic data to lateral and vertical changes in lithology, fluid, and porosity along and in between wells Understand the sensitivity of seismic data to lateral and vertical changes in lithology, fluid, and porosity along and in between wells
  • Automatically generate synthetic seismic response data from a geological model of well data.
  • Compare the synthetic seismic response data to real seismic data with the assumption that a similarity in seismic response indicates similar underlying rock properties such as lithology, fluid, and porosity.
