Overview:
Repsol, together with 3DGeo, a Houston-based imaging company formed by Stanford University professor and seismic imaging pioneer, Biondo Biondi, and the Spanish government-owned Barcelona Supercomputer Center (BSC), have created The Kaleidoscope Project. The Kaleidoscope Project is a “dream team” partnership of top geophysicists, computer scientists, and organizations from around the world that are creating a major advance in computerized techniques for seismic imaging.
The Kaleidoscope Project now makes possible the full realization of the next generation seismic imaging technology, including a specialized technique called Reverse Time Migration (RTM), that accelerates and streamlines oil and gas exploration by several orders of magnitude compared to current industry standards.
