The researchers are very grateful for this opportunity provided by CGG. A great benefit of such a donation is that the students can focus on their research rather than on the algorithms since these have already been well-tested by developers of the software.
Tapan Mukerji, Associate Research Professor of Energy Resources Engineering and Geophysics department, Stanford University, said, “Graduate students at the Stanford Rock Physics group and the Stanford Center for Reservoir Forecasting are using the software in their research for impedance inversion and reservoir characterization. Through our University Donation Program, CGG GeoSoftware is committed to fostering technological education and empowering a new generation of geoscientists.” Our recent software donations continue to cement relations between CGG and Stanford’s Energy Resources Engineering and Geophysics department to help improve the postgraduate training in Rock Physics and Reservoir Forecasting. The technical innovations we see year after year from the SRB team are very beneficial to CGG and the rest of the industry. Kamal al-Yahya, Senior Vice President, CGG GeoSoftware said, “CGG and Stanford University share the same commitment to technical excellence and innovation. CGG is also a recent member of the Stanford Center for Reservoir Forecasting. CGG has been a member of the Stanford Industrial Affiliates Program called the Stanford Rock Physics and Borehole Geophysics Project since 2008. The donated software suites, worth over $3 million, will enable students to better explore reservoir characterization and conduct further research on seismic inversion. Company Announcement - CGG GeoSoftware has donated its Hampson-Russell and Jason geophysical software suites, covering all aspects of reservoir characterization, to Stanford University, California.
