Harnessing the Subsurface for a Cleaner Future

The energy industry is undergoing one of the largest industrial changes in human history, driven by the pursuit of energy security and achieving net-zero carbon emissions. At the heart of this transformation lies an often-overlooked domain—the underground, from which almost all of the current energy systems derive their resources. Understanding and harnessing the potential of the subsurface have emerged as a critical imperative in the energy segments.

Seequent, a pioneering software company with roots deeply embedded in the renewable energy sector, stands at the forefront of this transition. With a heritage rooted in geothermal energy, it brings a wealth of experience and a distinct perspective on the evolving energy landscape. Leveraging its expertise and innovative solutions, the company spearheads a new era of exploration and utilization of underground resources.

Operating as a pure-play software firm, Seequent leads the charge in the energy transition through its cutting-edge geoscience and engineering software offering geological modeling and geophysical data analysis. The software empowers industry professionals to harness the full potential of the underground, driving the shift toward sustainable energy with unparalleled insight and efficiency.

“We provide modern, flexible and nimble ways of understanding the subsurface for the ever-evolving energy industry to drive robust decision-making,” says Jeremy O’Brien, segment director of energy at Seequent.

In an industry where companies face significant challenges in leveraging data effectively for timely decisions, Seequent offers innovative solutions to harness subsurface data to expedite decision-making, particularly in high cost, high risk environments. It employs two primary strategies—providing geoscience tools to the renewables and geothermal sectors with a focus on cost optimization in critical areas such as drilling, along with offering a comprehensive view of underground resources. It achieves this by simulating resource conditions over time and integrating subsurface data with surface infrastructure.

Seequent's adaptable tools empower subsurface professionals by ensuring real-time data availability that facilitates prompt and effective decisions. Leapfrog, its flagship product is a robust modern geological modeling tool that seamlessly integrates data from various sources, providing swift insights across energy projects.

The company further specializes in reservoir engineering and modeling tailored for geothermal energy. Its geophysical products—the result of over three decades of domain experience—support exploration and production workflows, aiding in basin delineation for hydrocarbon exploration. These versatile tools also contribute to carbon capture and storage, geothermal energy and offshore wind projects.

In the offshore wind sector, Seequent offers geotechnical products to optimize turbine placement and foundation design, providing stakeholders with efficient project insights.

Over its years of operation, the company has amassed numerous success stories, with a particularly noteworthy collaborative effort with a client in the Danish North Sea region, focusing on offshore wind farm development. Leveraging Seequent’s technology, the client conducted a thorough ground assessment for potential wind farm sites, unearthing complex geological structures that could have posed challenges to the energy project development. Informed recommendations from the solution enabled the client to strategically adjust their bidding plans, which optimized the project's viability.
