Data and intelligence provider TGS has launched advanced imaging centers for Petrobras dedicated to the Campos and Santos basins.
The facilities will use on-premises and cloud-based hardware to process data for use by geoscientists from both companies at Petrobras’s Rio de Janeiro offices.
“By combining TGS’ imaging expertise and technologies with Petrobras’s operational excellence, we are poised to uncover new opportunities for Brazil’s energy sector,” said Wadii El Karkouri, executive vice president of imaging and technology at TGS. “This investment also reinforces our longstanding commitment to building local capabilities and resources in the region.”
TGS’ 4D Full Waveform Inversion (FWI) technology will provide enhanced subsurface clarity for reservoir monitoring and characterization. The imaging centers will also integrate hybrid 4D solutions combining technologies for a comprehensive subsurface view.
