Geoscience services provider DUG Technology has announced a new partnership with energy consultancy PetroVision to promote and deliver specialised seismic data processing solutions in Nigeria
The partnership brings together DUG's expertise in advanced analytical software and reliable cloud-based high-performance computing (HPC), and PetroVision's perceptions on geoscience, engineering and economic aspects across the hydrocarbons sectors, including carbon capture and storage (CCS) and field exploration geochemical sampling for critical minerals such as lithium.
PetroVision will facilitate operations within Nigeria, while DUG will supply technology and support. This includes use of the DUG Insight processing, imaging and interpretation software and remote access to DUG’s teams of geophysical experts.
Leveraging cutting-edge technology
PetroVision will manage a local processing office within Nigeria, utilising computer resources via the DUG HPC Cloud platform. "We’re thrilled to join forces with DUG, leveraging their cutting-edge technology to enhance our technical capabilities, increase local content participation and broaden our service offerings in Nigeria," said PetroVision’s technical director, Lekan Aluko.
“We are looking forward to working closely with the team at PetroVision to build a strong presence, and grow our client base in Nigeria,” said Matthew Lamont, managing director, DUG.
DUG's interests in Nigeria comes following an uptick in the region's exploration scene, with the latest being a shallow offshore discovery by Chevron in the Western Niger Delta.
