Fairfield Geotechnologies and Ikon Science have formally signed a joint venture agreement to offer complete geoprediction services to the oil and gas industry in North America.
The joint venture leverages Ikon Science’s geoprediction technology, which includes innovative workflows for unconventional and conventional reservoirs and RokDoc Ji-Fi inversion software, with Fairfield Geotechnologies’ seismic acquisition, processing and multi-client data library.
Together, the two companies will aim to deliver geotechnical solutions designed for comprehensive reservoir characterization.
“The core capabilities and synergies of both companies are well matched,” said Charles (Chuck) Davison, CEO of Fairfield Geotechnologies. “The JV with Ikon represents our commitment to providing our clients with best-in class data, services and solutions for reservoir management, risk reduction and increased productivity.”
Mark Bashforth at Ikon Science commented, “This coupling of data and technology delivers a streamlined best of breed solution to our clients, the goal being to maximize the value from the data they acquire and use an understanding of the geology to manage reservoirs with precision.’’
