Blueback Well Ties

Multi-well, multi-seismic advanced well-to-seismic tie solution

Next-generation Well Tie Solution – Built for automation and efficiency

High-efficiency multi-well seismic calibration

Blueback Well Ties delivers a next-generation approach to well-to-seismic calibration by combining automation, multi-well scalability, and intelligent parameter handling in a single streamlined workflow. Simultaneously tie large numbers of wells to Partial Angle Stacks, Intercept, Gradient, Chi and PS volumes at the same time.

Get your well ties right

Well-to-seismic ties anchor the relationship between depth-based measurements at the wells and the time-based images from seismic.

If ties are inconsistent across wells or surveys, horizons can misalign, time–depth relationships (TDR) become unreliable, wavelets lose stability, and synthetics no longer reflect the reservoir. This directly affects inversion quality, well placement decisions, and the reliability of prospect evaluation.

Designed for interpreters who need reliable ties without slowing down, Blueback Well Ties delivers:

Consistency across wells and volumes

Cascading parameter updates: change logs, wavelets, checkshots, or seismic once and apply everywhere.

Higher confidence in interpretation, AVO, and inversion

Integrated log conditioning, robust tie methods, and real-time wavelet estimation for better synthetics and TDR/TWT relationships.

Speed for the whole exploration team, not just specialists

Simple Mode lets any interpreter produce clean ties in minutes. Advanced Mode unlocks full control when needed.

Built for real project scale

Handles tens of wells, multiple surveys, and angle stacks without losing performance or consistency.

Embedded where you work

Available in Petrel and Blueback Avary, maintaining project traceability and version history.

Audit-ready workflows

QC logs, tie statistics, and wavelet models make it easy to review, defend, and repeat your results.
