Pioneering in Machine Learning
- Written by: Paul de Groot
With over 30 years of experience in Machine Learning, dGB Earth Sciences continues to innovate in the field of seismic reservoir characterization.
Today, we take a trip down memory lane to showcase our journey and highlight our latest breakthroughs.
Carbonate Buildup Interpretation
- Written by: Paul de Groot
In seismic sequence stratigraphic studies, we analyze seismic reflection patterns in the context of a chronostratigraphic framework. In OpendTect, such frameworks are defined by a HorizonCube, which consists of a dense set of horizons representing Relative Geologic Time. The SSIS (Sequence Stratigraphic Interpretation System) plugin is an add-on that uses HorizonCube input to decompose depositional systems over geologic time.
Seismic Interpretation Services
- Written by: Paul de Groot
Next to developing OpendTect we also offer advanced seismic interpretation services. Our experts have worked on data sets from around the globe. We have extensive experience in hydrocarbon exploration, field development, time-lapse monitoring, unconventional plays and geothermal studies.
OpendTect is now STL compatible thanks to BGE sponsoring
- Written by: Marieke van Hout
Our latest OpendTect v6.6.8 supports STL format. This is a format used in the Computer Aided Design industry to design 3D objects. It is used in the Mining industry to show subsurface constructions such as mines. A nice feature (not shown) in OpendTect is that you can display attributes on the surface of the 3D body. For example displaying fault attributes would show where faults are intersecting the structure

Upcoming Price Increase
- Written by: Paul de Groot
We’ve held our prices pretty much constant for a considerable time now but due to spiraling inflation we will be increasing our prices by 10% in the new year.
The updated prices will allow us to maintain and improve our standards for excellence. We will keep pushing the boundaries of technology, improving OpendTect's performance and support, so that we can continue to give you the very best value for money.
Low Unit Cost (LUC) Geothermal Installations
- Written by: Marieke van Hout
Geothermie Groep Nederland (GGN), dGB Earth Sciences and two suppliers of high-performance drilling services have joined their expertise to harvest low-enthalpy geothermal energy with temperatures ranging from 60 – 90 0C using LUC installations. LUC’s enable economic development of geothermal energy for domestic heating and heating of greenhouses, also from lower-quality aquifers in smaller-scale projects. The method consists of an innovative combination of project management, best-practices in well engineering, production technology and advanced reservoir management.
