Optimizing seismic survey design
MDesign is a seismic survey design tool for optimizing OBN survey efficiency through a collaborative process between all stakeholders.
We focus on resolving complex subsurface imaging challenges that operators face while considering all operational aspects to maximize performance.

Project comparison example
Optimized design
The tool is developed to create survey designs that maximize the efficiencies gained from MantaRay OBN acquisition, but it can also improve the design of surveys acquired using conventional operating methods, such as remotely operated vehicles (ROVs).
