Geological forecast & exploration

Modern Technologies Co; Ltd. & inlania enterprises Russian advanced technology for Geological Forecast & Exploration. modern-tech@mail.ru

SAFIR The Laboratory of Aerospace Methods, of xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx in Russia, have developed the original (non-domestic and foreign counterparts) methods of structural analysis computer for space images and air-structures-metric mapping relief

Methodology To perform predictive of works the aerospace pictures taken in different bands as visible and invisible region of the spectrum, radar and laser data of remote sensing (ERS ). According to the ERS can quickly give a Forecast & geological exploration for potential mineral resources in a given area, to assess their volume, depth and other parameters of the deposit, including the assessment of drilling conditions on the vertical profile and the recommended placement of the drill holes. In this case, the accuracy of the Forecast & geological exploration evaluation of at least 90%.

SAFIR Forecast & geological exploration for potential mineral resources in the specified region

Discovery: a new computerized mechanism for the identifying the properties of distributed data through an integrated analysis of the information that is present in aerospace images in a hidden form.

Methodology: aerospace images captured in different ranges of the visible and the invisible region of the spectrum, radar and laser remote sensing ERS data.

Result: maps / geological profile set deposit / deposits, estimated volumes, the depth, the exact location and depth of drilling Accuracy of Forecast & geological exploration evaluation will achieve at least 90%.

SAFIR Software modules and used techniques In the initial stages of aerospace image processing uses the following modules: • •

Programs and pre-graded structural metric correction to the image field; Piecewise Fourier transform of the image, allowing to highlight areas with relatively minimal amplitudes of the harmonic components of the original image, the image of the structural primary screening, ie translate it into binary form using the algorithm Evans, releasing parts of the image with negative Gaussian curvature; • The selection background grid ring structures (of which there are hundreds of thousands of 1 sq. km), overlaps and combination of which creates a complex interference pattern; • The consistent filtration binary structural images produced to detect circular and elliptic structures; • Comparative analysis of the images taken in different areas of the spectrum; • Comparative analysis of the final image with a reference; • "Unfolding" of the final image Further general analysis and processing of materials includes 14 successive phases, which are formed as a result of the deliverables.

SAFIR Knockouts: all of the underlying processes and structures visible on the surface of the Earth Ultra-low frequency acoustic oscillations (microseisms) associated with developments in the bowels of the planet tectonic processes.

Effect "raying" the earth's crust also explain tectonically induced fracturing of its upper floors.

The outward expression of these processes on the Earth's surface are called ring structures.

These geologic bodies are in the form of cones with vertices (power generation centers) are separated in depth and give a projection on a horizontal plane in the gravitational field of the Earth's concentric circles.

Each point of hydrocarbon deposits, vibrating under the influence coming from the Earth's energy, a source of acoustic waves emitted constantly coming to the surface of the earth cone.

SAFIR Analysis of the ring structures: oil prospecting

Ring structure of a given radius corresponds to a single point at a certain depth, which is the apex of the cone, the base of which is a ring structure that was expressed on the surface.

Each of these layers is then subjected to a variety of pattern recognition procedures, after which performance can be judged that the revealed structure is promising for the search of oil and gas, has some depth and power deposition, and the amount is different than some of saturated hydrocarbons, contains a certain amount (mass ) hydrocarbons.

SAFIR The main directions of use of ERS in Geology * structural and structural meta-analysis of the surface of the Earth; * analysis of local and global GIS anomalies; * geological study of the area and a geological map; * geo-ecological monitoring of exogenous geological processes:  Gravity (slope);  Karst-suffusion and their technological counterparts;  Erosion and abrasion;  Cryogenic; •

prediction of mineral resources:  Regional stage - assessment of predicted resources of oil and gas and mineral ore provinces, mineralized zones and regions;  Detailed (search) stage - area Forecast & geological exploration, identifying oil and gas and ore zones of ore districts and units;  Local (exploration) stage Forecast & geological exploration - exploration, estimation of reserves;

SAFIR Effective cost Global average cost of traditional exploration work: in the search phase: 3-5 thousand dollars for 1 sq. m. km. the exploration phase selecting (seismic and other geophysical methods) places for drilling: about 10 thousand dollars for 1 sq. m. km.

Prospecting and exploration work at the time stretched on for years, and the success of exploration drilling, with an average of 25% to the actual cost of each production well drilling (about 3-7 million) are added to the cost 10-28 million dollars spent on the dry hole.

During the detailed exploration of traditional sufficiently disrupted ecological conditions and to remedy these violations also spent considerable funds.

Projections developed by the structural metric method, compared to conventional exploration works: 路 3 times more accurate 路 1-2 times cheaper 路 1-2 times expeditiously, 路 Do not disturb the ecological state of the territory.

Error in determining the depth and capacity of oil and gas reservoirs according to numerous test wells do not exceed 4 - 5% (at depths up to 4000 m.)

Productive horizons at depths of 7 km and more evident on the shelf - at sea depths of up to 450 m The most productive way: Comprehensive predictive resource assessment of license areas and territories, the tender for the right of subsoil use Detailed follow-up exploration producing fields Detailed exploration of uncharted territories

SAFIR Competitive advantages Cost efficiency:

The method provides complete information for the strategic management of natural resources of the state (of the company).

The method is an excellent tool for large projects, delivers significant cost and time savings.

Less expensive than any traditional method Requiring no out in the study area

Saving of time: A short time to do Forecast & geological explorationing and assessment work flexibility

The method is applicable to Forecast & geological exploration the availability of all types of minerals, oil, gas, metals, water, raw materials for the production of building materials, etc.

Accuracy: Prediction accuracy of 80 - 90% In remote locations / offshore Allows you to work in any area (no departure in the field) water depth of up to 2 km depth studies of up to 10 km.

The method can be applied at any time of the year, whatever the weather.
