Paradigm™ reported that African Petroleum has selected the Paradigm interpretation suite on Microsoft® Windows® as its corporate standard for seismic interpretation. The company additionally announced that its interpretation applications have subsequently played a significant role in African Petroleum’s oil discovery offshore Liberia.

“African Petroleum has successfully used Paradigm’s advanced seismic interpretation tools for detailed stratigraphic interpretation of multiple fan systems in blocks 8 and 9 offshore Liberia, resulting in a significant oil discovery,” said Adrian Robinson, exploration director at African Petroleum Corporation Ltd. “SeisEarth® and VoxelGeo® allowed us to rapidly interrogate multiple, large 3D seismic and attribute volumes to predict reservoir and seal facies as well as potential areal net-to-gross variation. Visualization of our data in a collaborative environment helped bring the team together to select the best well location.”
