3D induced polarization modeling and inversion
TechnoImaging provides petrophysical testing, 3D modeling and 3D inversion services for induced polarization (IP) using the following relaxation models:
- Cole-Cole
- Generalized effective medium theory of induced polarization (GEMTIP)
TechnoImaging's EMVision®1 can model and invert both frequency- and time-domain IP data.
EMVision®® incorporates TechnoImaging's focusing regularized inversion that enables the recovery of models with sharp conductivity and chargeability contrasts, rather than models with smooth conductivity and chargeability distributions. Coupled with fast run-times, this enables multiple inversion scenarios to be explored so as to minimize 3D model uncertainty.
EMVision® supports Geosoft and ASCII data formats, and industry standard earth model formats used by Petrel2, GoCad/SKUA3, Oasis montaj4 and encom pa.
EMVision® also enables Internet-hosted 3D IP modeling and inversion on TechnoImaging's high performance computing resources.
TechnoImaging is able to provide short courses and training on 3D IP modeling and inversion.
