Seismic Micro-Technology awards gift of Kingdom Software

Seismic Micro-Technology awards gift of Kingdom Software valued at $1,192,896.58



The Department of Geological Science has just been awarded three-year grant of the Kingdom Suite seismic interpretation software (10 seat license valued at $1,192,896.58) through the University Gift program. This software is used widely in the petroleum industry and will be a great advantage for our students entering the petroleum industry as well as a valuable tool for research and interpretation of seismic reflection data.

The KINGDOM Software (TKS) enables intuitive, integrated geoscientific workflow spanning:

  • Interpretation: Pick horizons and faults, overlay seismic with well data, correlate formation tops, contour surfaces, and view in 2D or 3D.
  • Modeling: View 1D synthetic seismograms, create velocity models for time to depth conversions, and convert resistivity and density logs to velocity.
  • Analytics: Analyze pre-stack gathers, perform quick look log analysis, generate velocity volumes, conduct attribute analysis and create custom calculators.
  • Data Management: Manage multiple projects and migrate data between major interpretation software platforms.

University Program

The goal of SMT's Educational Grant Program is to put workstation software in the classroom so those students graduating from universities are equipped for the job market with workstation experience. The KINGDOM Software is utilized for both teaching and research at academic institutions in 27 countries worldwide.

As of January 1, 2008, SMT has donated thousands of software licenses to 143 colleges and universities around the world. We offer each institute multiple copies of KINGDOM software for their teaching lab and for the professor or instructor's use in classes. Beginning in 2001, three-year grants, including all maintenance support and updates, have been donated with a total estimated value of over one hundred million dollars ($100M).
