Contact person for the project (the person filling out the questionnaire) Boris G. Levin 2000 +7 (499) 720-53-13 [email protected] 6. Describe the problem that the project is intended to solve a. Problem description At the moment, similar products on the geophysical service software market are offered as individual modules providing solutions to a narrow-range of special 4000 problems or as large systems providing integrated solutions by solely foreign software developers. This has led to monopolization (95%) of the Russian market by two largest companies Roxar and and to unreasonably high prices. In this connection, risks of complete loss for the Russian applied geophysical science potential and information safety are extremely high. The foreign software developers are not responsive enough in adapting their software solutions to the requirements and standards of the Russian users. This Application is underlain by a marketing survey completed by O2 Consulting Co on behalf of GDP LLC. The survey estimates the Russian geophysical software market to amount to $170m by 2019. These funds could resolutely contribute to the development of high-end software technology in this country. b.

Please describe the basic technologies and market trends in the considered market segment a. Description of trends A. Technological trends 4000 1. Development of integrated solutions on the software market A tendency is at present observed to integrate principal directions of data interpretation and modeling along the lines “seismic interpretation – geologic modeling – hydrodynamic simulation”. Such integrated systems are in growing demand owing to the possibility of providing concurrent integrated solutions to more than one geophysical modeling challenges. 2. Technology developments in geophysics and software  development of mathematical principles and 3D modeling for oil and gas reservoirs  developments in the processing and interpretation of 3D seismic exploration, sedimentation analysis and 3D hydrodynamic simulation  advent of powerful supercomputers and workstations allowing complex computations with sufficient speed and display of results 3. Development of software with open source code At the present time, open source code software develops actively. Demand for open source code software rises owing to its accessability, high functionality and possibility to tailor it to solution of specific tasks. OpenTect, GeoTriple for Oil&Gas Exploration, GeoCraft, GI and others exemplify such software platforms. B. Market trends 1. Rising demand for high-quality acquisition and processing of hydrocarbon field data As new technologies of oil and gas production (hydrofrac, slanted and horizontal drilling) are being introduced and hydrocarbon exploration and production environments are getting more and more complicated, and newly discovered fields are being developed, the geophysical service software role is gaining more and more in significance: the demand is rising for high-quality data about hydrocarbon fields and for efficient hardware and software for geophysical services. 3 From 2011 to 2013, the global geophysical service software market rose from $2.7bn to $3.0bn. 2. Rising demand for Russian-made geophysical service software from Russian oil and gas companies because of western sanctions:  ban on export outside Russia of information regarding Russian oil and gas reserves (Russian response to sanctions)  restricted supply and usage possibilities of geologic exploration equipment and technologies for oil and gas industry on the part of USA and EU The share of the Russian-made software to be used by major subsoil wealth user companies, as the latter’s documents indicate, is expected to grow from current 5% to 50%-70% by 2020. 3. Rising demand for hydrocarbon industry services from the countries of North and Latin America, Middle East and Africa, India, China, Vietnam and Australia Development of fields using hydrofrac operations, deep, slanted and horizontal drilling (e.g. in USA and Canada), and active development of offshore fields in a number of countries (e.g. in Brazil) has led in these countries to greater demand for hydrocarbon industry services on the whole and for geophysical service software in particular. Thus, revenue structure in largest transnational hydrocarbon services companies (Schlumberger and ) shows a tendency of earning greater income share in North and Latin America particularly from shale reservoirs. For the recent 7 years, the petroleum service market volume has risen 120% and made $359bn. 4. Consolidation of assets The world’s petroleum industry services market shows a tendency of asset consolidation – the number of company mergers and acquisitions was growing linearly during 2009-2012 making 40% (167 and 233 respectively). This was due to higher investment activity of petroleum services companies in USA and Canada (about 40% of all deals) and internationally. The acquisition targets include:  companies that have latest technologies  companies that may be conduits to new geographical areas and markets b.

5 The basic technology, aiming to estimate hydrocarbon reserves of reservoir(s) and work out an optimal HC production scheme, consists of three phases: 20000 1. seismic data interpretation (DV-Discovery) 2. building a geotechnical model for the field to develop and produce (DV-Geo) 3. building a hydrodynamic simulation model to specifically determine HC production process (PIX-Geo) The above 3 phases are described in greater detail below: 1. A hydrocarbon reservoir (HC pool) needs to be located, i.e. the presence and shape of a trap must be defined where hydrocarbons may be accumulated, and a network of faults must be identified. This work is possible based on interpretation of 2D/3D seismic and other geophysical data (gravity survey, electric survey, etc.). This phase technology provides for scanning the seismic data, determining the velocity function, correlating seismic horizons and geologic faults, computing and mapping the attributes, inverting the seismic data in order to derive prediction values of geophysical parameters. The resolution at this phase is rather low and insufficient for building a detailed geologic model; therefore, geophysical borehole survey (GBS or well log) data are used to more accurately define the reservoir structure. Seismic interpretation module is used at this phase (http://www.cge.ru/?page=dscvfunc_r) that provides for:  working with seismic data cubes and SEGY profiles  dynamic visualization of data along with producing any type of real-time cross-sections – slices – regular, arbitrary, arbitrarily oriented, “amplitude”, “chair”, “angle”, etc.  working with crooked and composite profiles  working with several data cubes concurrently (time cubes, coherency cubes, sedimentation cubes, acoustic impedance cubes, etc.); the user can load as many as 16 different cubes  comparison of slices from different data cubes and various-version profiles  manual and auto correlation of horizons  generation of isochrone maps along a horizon surface  geologic fault interpretation  generation of attribute maps (dip angle, azimuths, acoustic impedance, average amplitudes)  generation of attribute cubes (instantaneous phases, instantaneous amplitudes, instantaneous frequencies, first-order derivatives, second-order derivatives, etc.)  well data visualization  integrated interpretation of seismic and GBS (well log) data o joint analysis 6 o seismic modeling o plotting correlation dependencies of seismic vs. GBS parameters  plotting well logs as a montage panel  paleo-reconstruction  sedimentation analysis  paleo-tectonics analysis  correlation analysis  seismic inversion o seismic reflectivity inversion to acoustic impedance o stochastic inversion  prediction of geologic parameters using neural networks: o generation of prediction maps o generation of parameter cubes and profiles  post-processing of data cubes and profiles  conversion of data cubes, profiles and interpretation prospects to depth domain  direct two-way interface with geologic modeling module database  generation of image hardcopies 2. GBS data are used to correlate productive horizons of hydrocarbon deposit; then, the deposit is geometrized and its framework is built which is to include tops and bases of strata, and oil-water contacts and gas-fluid contacts. Concurrently, GBS data are interpreted in order to determine reservoir characterization properties of reservoir in wells, and interpretation results are made consistent with the core data. Next, relationships are sought between interpreted GBS data and attribute data derived from seismic interpretation results. A 3D geologic model gridded framework is created and interpreted well log (GBS) data are interpolated to all 3D model gridded cells, with revealed seismic-GBS relationship trends honored. This operation actually consists of two phases: lithologic modeling and petrophysical modeling. The result is a geologic model that is used to subsequently estimate hydrocarbon reserves and to model hydrodynamic simulation process. At this phase, use is made of the geologic modeling software module that includes (http://www.cge.ru/index.php?page=dvgeoproduct_r):  Integrated base of geologic, geophysical and production data with the following capabilities: o standard format well data file import o access to geoscience databases through ODBC o flexible tuning to data import/export formats o import/export of modeling data in software formats supported by leading oil and gas companies o direct two-way interface with seismic interpretation module database o follow-up of project versions 7  visualization tools (1D visualization is plan-views and horizontal slices; 2D visualization is regular and arbitrarily-oriented slices and sections from 3D views; 3D and 4D visualization is a 3D viewing space): o plan-views, regular and arbitrarily-oriented slices, multiple slices, 3D viewing spaces o viewing different type data in one work window and parameter readout o dynamic interlink of work windows and bringing them to a single scale o rotation and change of scale and illumination of objects o data color-coding, and creation of gathers o generation, display and editing of maps, schematics, profiles and geologic-geophysical profile sections  well section correlation to identify geologic markers and to subsequently build a 3D structural model for hydrocarbon deposit (reservoir): o manual correlation with auto picking key markers o auto correlation of long intervals on logs of the same type in adjacent wells o loading correlation results produced in a different software system  structural modeling of oil-bearing strata: o creating a region and optimization of grid parameters for computing reference geologic surfaces o selection and tuning of an algorithm to compute surfaces; use is made of both deterministic and stochastic computation procedures o use of seismic surfaces as trend surfaces o generation of surfaces and maps with faults posted o computation of structure maps in isolines o generation of fluid contact outlines o dynamic analysis of modeling results, and rapid editing of surfaces o surface display parameter control  lithology modeling: o generation of net sand percentage cube o sampled lithology cube generation o generation of NTG ratio cube and continuous-lithology cube o generation and smoothing of net thickness maps o use of lithology modeling algorithm with conceptual model employed  petrophysical modeling: o generation of petrophysical parameter cubes (porosity, permeability and oil saturation o generation of computation parameter maps o generation of cubes of oil saturation parameters o generation of maps showing oil saturation parameters  3D geologic models: 8 o assessing 3D parameter computation accuracy o identification of reservoir zones o averaging the zone parameters o generation of maps in isolines o map correction and back correction of cubes from maps  hydrocarbon reserve estimation o HC reserve estimation by region, zone and prospect with due regard for structural and lithologic specificities of reservoirs o generation and edit of HC reserve density maps o preparation of computation documents  data preparation for hydrodynamic simulation modeling: o creation and visualization of 3D grids for hydrodynamic simulation modeling o grid editing by layers and sections; generation of pinchouts o rescaling the cubes of computation parameters (Upscale procedure) o updating the values in rescaled cube cells o comparative analysis of parameter cubes on geologic and hydrodynamic simulation grids  generation of document hardcopies: o use of ready-made forms o in-built editor of text and graphics o output to printers and plotters of commonly used models o import of Microsoft Word, Excel and Paint Brush texts and tables o export of graphics files to raster and vector formats 3. At the hydrodynamic simulation modeling stage, geologic model and oilfield data are used to create a filtration model of the reservoir At this stage, use is made of the software module for hydrodynamic simulation modeling and HC development and production management; the module includes pre-processor and post-processor to prepare and analyze the data for the hydrodynamic simulator. The hydrodynamic simulator includes:  two- and three-phase filtration model for fluids (non-volatile oil model)  multi-component filtration model (composite model)  non-isothermal filtration model  reservoir physical-chemical stimulation models (polymer flood, surfactant injection, carbon-dioxide gas, etc.)  filtration models in an environment with dual porosity and dual permeability for modeling the processes in fractured-vuggy reservoirs 10.

The origin and dynamics of the project development 1. The project has been developing since mid-90s; innovative technologies are created and introduced for an integrated interpretation of geoscience data; 2000 first patents were registered in 1997; 1998 was the start year for using DV-1 Discovery system for interpretation of seismic exploration data and for 2D/3D data visualization. 2. Year 2000 crowned completion of DV-Geo software for building 3D geologic models of hydrocarbon fields from exploration and production well data, and DV-Geo commercial use started. Incorporation of geologic modeling tools into DV-Geo system required that DV-Geo be integrated with DV- Discovery system at the onset of the 21 century. The product underwent testing under CGE projects. In 2001, CGE formed a division for designing and monitoring hydrocarbon field development and production. Ever since, oil and gas companies are offered a complete range of dataware services covering the prospecting, exploration, development and production of hydrocarbon fields, i.e. from designing geophysical operations followed by supervision over actual conduct of such operations, the processing and interpretation of acquired data, building grid models and estimating hydrocarbon reserves through to hydrodynamic simulation of reservoirs and designing hydrocarbon field development and production. 3. During 2004-2006, CGE performed 3D modeling and HC reserve estimation for the giant Samotlor oil field by using DV-Geo and DV-Discovery systems. 4. Recently, the international market started actively offering integrated solutions that include hydrodynamic simulations of HC reservoirs. In this connection, CGE is actively working at the present time under this project at creating proprietary hydrodynamic simulator for its integration to the software platform. 2014 is the time when major subsoil wealth user companies (Gazprom, Rosneft, LUKoil and others) request faster extension of software functionality and creation of integrated software systems able to replace the imports. 5. In the light of imports replacement tendency that makes itself felt on the Russian software market of late, major subsoil wealth user companies (Gazprom, Rosneft, LUKoil and others) show more and more interest in the products being developed under this Project. For this reason, meetings have been held and respective protocols have been signed with them to start a corporate testing and beta test of individual software modules. 18.
