A better way to handle data

Subsurface and seismic data management is the key to smarter decision-making in the oil & gas industry.

A huge volume of O&G seismic reflection information collected during the past 100 years is contained in old media and unusable formats. Fortunately, Ovation can make it readable, accessible, and usable. We will liberate the data in old tapes, and transcribe and migrate it into the latest SEG-Y format for analysis. We can vectorize your seismic data for use in new exploration software, and we can reformat well data to read trends. We can digitize your x-ray images to feed AI models, migrate your media files to take advantage of the newest remastering techniques, and more. We can also provide systems and processes for easy and secure access, enabling you to extract greater data value for increased revenue.

How we help

Ovation experts help energy companies maximize the value of enormous data sets generated by hydrocarbon exploration. We convert valuable data assets from locked media into a ready-to-run resource.

Data Insights

Ovation customizes data management strategies to help guide our clients’ use of industry automation, third-party data and integrated advanced software systems. Our software can vectorize a seismic section and well logs, take it from analog to digital, create meta data, then make it fit for purpose. We help reveal insights gained through the end-to-end digitization of the oilfield, and offer AI solutions to maximize gains from the vast amount of data being collected from edge computing devices and management systems.
