Interpretation Showdown: What is your take?
- Details
- Written by: Marieke van Hout
Take a closer look at this interval of interest from our well know F3 Demo dataset, offshore the Netherlands. What do you see?
Years ago, two seasoned geologists—both using this exact same intersection for teaching—gave me two completely different interpretations of the interval you’re looking at. Same data. Different minds. Wildly different conclusions.
New AVO Formulation in OpendTect's BLI (Bayesian Linear Inversion) plugin
- Details
- Written by: Marieke van Hout
We are excited to announce a major upgrade in BLI!
Dr. Leandro Passos de Figueiredo and Professor Dr. Dario Grana recently published two works introducing a new AVO approximation in terms of P-impedance and Vp/Vs ratio. One is a conference paper for the EAGE Annual Meeting, and the other is a full article in Geophysics.
This new formulation enhances facies classification when applied to seismic Bayesian inversion. It was derived in response to challenges encountered during facies classification with BLI tests on real data.

- Written by: Marieke van Hout
Yesterday, we had the opportunity to explore the Piesberg quarry in Germany as part of our ongoing geothermal investigation for the Municipality of Dinkelland (Denekamp). This field trip is a component of the LUC Geothermal Energy project, aimed at identifying cost-effective and sustainable geothermal energy sources in the Twente region.

For those of you who missed our webinar by David Markus, I am hereby sharing the video.
The session covered a workflow that combines traditional interpolation methods with deep learning to create high-resolution 3D volumes from 2D seismic data.
