CGG Donates Software to TU Delft

CGG GeoSoftware has donated its Jason and HampsonRussell seismic reservoir characterization software suites to Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands.

The donation of a full HampsonRussell suite and the renewal of an enhanced Jason package will enable students at the Department of Geoscience & Engineering to expand their theoretical and practical knowledge of quantitative reservoir characterization and inversion techniques, the company explained.

Kees Wapenaar, professor of Applied Geophysics, Department of Geoscience & Engineering, TU Delft, said: “We are delighted to have received these software donations from CGG, with whom TU Delft has a strong historic connection.”

Kamal al-Yahya, senior vice president, GeoSoftware, CGG, said: “Given our very close historic ties to TU Delft, the university is a key partner as we extend our software donation program in Europe. TU Delft is renowned for its conduct of high-quality scientific research for societal and industrial applications and it is a source of pride that its students will continue to have access to Jason and can now also benefit from a full suite of our HampsonRussell software to increase their proficiency in reservoir characterization. This kind of cooperation is important to support the training of the next generation of geoscientists while bringing benefits to all parties involved. ”
