Exploration and Appraisal – Geoscience
The exploration evaluation experience of RISC is world class, with a global team in both conventional and unconventional assets. Our experience in this area includes basin evaluation, prospect generation and exploration portfolio management. We carry out reviews of farm-out opportunities, Independent Technical Specialist Reports and provide peer support and on-the-job education.
RISC also provides practical advice on the management and execution of exploration programs and can provide support for seismic data during design, tendering, acquisition, processing and, ultimately, the interpretation stages of a seismic program.
The team has a wealth of up-to-date experience in sequence stratigraphy, seismic stratigraphy, structural analysis, burial history modelling, petroleum systems analysis and risked play fairway analysis in both frontier and mature basins. RISC has completed reviews for onshore and offshore projects in most areas of the world for major, mid-tier and smaller players.
