Seismic-EM Integration Tackles Deep Water E&P Challenges

Deep water is a complex high-risk environment with no shortcuts to success. Joint interpretation of seismic and deep reading electromagnetics (EM) can provide a powerful tool for the risk mitigation process. This work focuses on the advances and challenges in seismic-EM integration and gives case examples of imaging improvements that are consistently proving to lower exploration risk while maximizing knowledge of the prospects in the deep Brazilian offshore where challenges, logistics, and costs can be formidable.
