VSP Processing Software

Borehole seismic, from geometry to migrated image.

A dedicated VSP processing package for 2D/3D Vertical Seismic Profiles — geometry building, first-break picking, wave separation, velocity inversion and tomography, VSP-to-CDP conversion, and Kirchhoff / RTM VSP imaging in an interactive application.

VSP is its own discipline — and its own package. Implemented inside g-Platform but licensable separately, the VSP package covers the complete Vertical Seismic Profile workflow: build VSP geometry, pick first breaks, separate wavefields, invert velocities with tomography, apply vertical time correction and elevation statics, model acoustically, convert time to depth — and tie it all back to surface seismic through VSP-to-CDP conversion and CDP mapping.
Capabilities

The full VSP chain, in one package.

VSP geometry building
Build and QC borehole survey geometry for 2D and 3D VSP acquisitions.
First-break picking
VSP first-break picking feeding velocity inversion and statics.
Wave separation
Separate up- and down-going wavefields with median filtering.
Velocity inversion & tomography
Invert interval velocities and refine models with tomography.
NMO / stack / corridor mute
VSP NMO, stacking and corridor mute for corridor-stack products.
Statics & corrections
Vertical time correction and elevation statics for clean alignment.
Modeling & time-depth
VSP acoustic modeling and time-depth conversion tied to well data.
VSP-to-CDP & CDP mapping
Convert VSP to CDP domain and map results into surface seismic.
VSP imaging

Two migration engines. Interactive views.

Imaging
Kirchhoff 2D/3D

Kirchhoff VSP migration in two and three dimensions for robust, production-ready borehole imaging.

Imaging
RTM 2D/3D

Reverse-time migration for complex geology — the same engine family that powers g-Platform depth imaging.

Application
Interactive application

Apply VSP imaging interactively in 2D/3D with various synchronized views for parameterization and QC.

Workflow

Six steps to a borehole image.

1
Build VSP geometry
Define source and receiver geometry for the borehole survey and QC it interactively.
2
Pick first breaks
Pick VSP first breaks to drive velocity inversion, vertical time correction and elevation statics.
3
Separate wavefields
Split up- and down-going waves with median filtering to isolate the reflected signal.
4
Invert velocity
Invert interval velocities, refine with tomography, and build the VSP model with acoustic modeling.
5
Correct, stack & mute
Apply VSP NMO, stack, and corridor mute; convert time to depth against well control.
6
Image & tie to surface
Migrate with Kirchhoff or RTM 2D/3D and tie results into surface seismic via VSP-to-CDP and CDP mapping.
Part of g-Platform

Standalone package. Integrated platform.

VSP is licensed as its own package — and runs inside g-Platform, sharing the project tree, batch processing, job scheduler and GPU cluster with the full processing chain.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What does the VSP processing package include?
The complete Vertical Seismic Profile workflow: VSP geometry building, first-break picking, wave separation with median filtering, velocity inversion and tomography, vertical time correction and elevation statics, VSP NMO / stack / corridor mute, acoustic modeling, time-depth conversion, and VSP imaging with Kirchhoff and RTM in 2D/3D through an interactive application.
Is VSP a separate product or part of g-Platform?
Both: VSP is implemented inside g-Platform and shares its project environment, batch processing and CPU/GPU cluster — but it is licensed as its own package, so borehole-seismic teams can license exactly what they need.
Which VSP migration algorithms are available?
Kirchhoff migration in 2D and 3D, and reverse-time migration (RTM) in 2D and 3D, applied through an interactive application with various synchronized views.
Can VSP results be tied to surface seismic?
Yes — VSP-to-CDP conversion and CDP mapping carry borehole results into the surface-seismic domain, so VSP calibrates and strengthens the surface imaging workflow in the same project.
