CERENA Seminar: Innovation in the geo-modelling workflow: a geophysical perspective by Dr. Pierre Thore

On 25^th February, at 11h00, the seminar entitled “Innovation in the geo-modelling workflow: a geophysical perspective” will be held by Dr. Pierre Thore, TOTAL.

This presentation looks over the current state of TOTAL's research and development for geosciences and reservoir modelling. Real case examples illustrate the current R&D projects with a particular focus on geophysical data integration.
