Bell Geo at IMAGE 2021
Please join online or in person at SEG | AAPG Image 2021. The Bell Geo team is ready to showcase how and why airborne data will add value to exploration activities and seismic re-processing work. You can review the previous year's operations and hear the plans for 2022 and beyond.
THEME : Airborne's role in meeting global demand on resources
Mapping geology is a key to success for many of the Energy Transition scenarios. Take projects to the skies with Bell Geospace.
The Energy Transition brings an increasing focus on geothermal, minerals/metals, wind/solar, and unarguably Oil & Gas is needed to fuel the transition. Furthermore, there are the mitigation requirements such as underground storage sites for storing hydrogen, carbon, and even nuclear waste disposal.
Mapping geology is essential to succeed with these objectives. Here at Bell Geospace, we assert that airborne data acquisition, processing, and interpretation has a role to play in helping operators achieve their energy transition targets. Our responsive team and innovative technology places us right at the heart of our industry, with our customers-needs at the centre of everything we do.
Bell Geospace high resolution data is available at low cost and is complementary to both legacy and new multi-discipline datasets. The combined impact of multiple data types plays a direct role for mapping base geology from near surface to depth and tracking the important geological structures driving the mineral/petroleum system.
- Tight line spaced FTG provides essential information for the near surface exploration of metals or identification of suitable storage sites.
- Increasing wider line spaced surveys maps the geological distribution of required commodities, be it O&G, base & critical metals, or dry/water-filled reservoir for geothermal resources.
Our team has prepared various activities for the SEG around these theme. We invite you to explore with us.
Explore Sri Lanka - The Future of Energy is Unfurling in Sri Lanka
There are new acreage opportunities, new legislations, and new data in Sri Lanka. We invite interested parties to join our virtual presentation with PRDS and Schlumberger to learn more . 9am Tuesday MT - add to diary.
Critical Minerals and Mineral Systems - Airborne Coverage Provides Critical Intel
Bell Geospace is proud to have our airborne data included in the new Geologica training course. Graham Banks will be delivering a short course overview as part of Bell's virtual booth proceedings. We're also sharing a minerals exploration case study presentation by our Chief Scientist Colm Murphy so be sure to join us live for that one. If you're looking for more of an entry level presentation, please join in the Critical Minerals and FTG intro session with Liam Clark.
Carbonates Exploration will Pay Dividends - FTG excels in Carbonates Exploration
Carbonates play host to some of the biggest reserves of O&G and metal deposits ever found. If exploring carbonates is your game, may we recommend the Malaysia Multiclient update which includes case studies on Sarawak Carbonates, and check out the Indonesia case study presentation too.
We are delighted to host an interesting academic talk from guest speaker Siti Nur Fathiyah Jamaludin, Lecturer at Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS. Siti will present Shallow vs. Deep Subsurface Structures of Central Luconia Province Offshore Malaysia Revealed by Aeromagnetic, Airborne Gravity, and Seismic Data.
For even more detail, why not request a meeting with Colm Murphy to see Bell’s new ‘curvature method’ in action? He demonstrates the clear mapping of carbonate reefs and corresponding fault networks. The data is from Malaysia, and the analogues are globally relevant.
