Sound QI

Eid Mubarak to our colleagues, clients, partners, and friends in Malaysia, and to all those celebrating Eid al-Adha around the world.
We extend our warmest wishes to you and your loved ones as you mark this special occasion.

Happy Victoria Day

Please note that our office is closed today and our team is off to enjoy the holiday with their family and friends.

Emails and inquiries will be responded to tomorrow upon our return to the office.

And just like that, GeoConvention is over.

This is always one of our favourite events of the year — and if you know the Sound QI team well, you know that we attend a lot of events throughout the year.

Over the past few days, we had the opportunity to reconnect with many familiar faces, while also meeting new people from across the industry. Thank you to everyone who took the time to stop by our booth and chat with our team.

We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to the organizers of GeoConvention for once again hosting a world-class event. The amount of work required to coordinate this event, every year, is immense, and the attention to detail throughout the convention never goes unnoticed by our team.

To everyone who attended Felix Oghenekohwo’s presentation, we hope that you enjoyed it. Having seen the amount of work and preparation that went into this presentation over the past several months, it was rewarding for us to see it come to fruition.

Finally, if you connected with our team regarding follow-ups, demonstrations, conversations, or questions during the event, please allow us a few days to get full settled back in the office. We look forward to continuing those conversations soon.

If you are attending GeoConvention today, be sure to stop by Booth #217 and visit our team. Our booth giveaway this year is colouring books and pencil crayons… because everyone loves colouring.

Also today, our own Felix Oghenekohwo, PhD, will be presenting:
A Flexible Framework for Controlled Time Alignment in Seismic Data Comparison. His presentation is from 11:25–11:50 AM in room Telus 101–102. Don't miss it!

A reminder that Sound QI’s Felix Oghenekohwo, PhD, ill be presenting at GeoConvention this week.

His presentation, A Flexible Framework for Controlled Time Alignment in Seismic Data Comparison, is scheduled for May 12 from 11:25–11:50 AM in Telus 101–102.

Presentation Abstract:

Accurate comparison of seismic data depends on proper time alignment, yet small timing differences introduced by acquisition conditions, processing choices, or subsurface changes are often treated as a minor preprocessing issue. This presentation introduces a flexible and transparent framework for seismic time alignment that combines conventional global correction with constrained local adjustments to address gradual, time-varying shifts. The objective is to align timing consistently without forcing waveform similarity, thereby preserving physically meaningful amplitude and shape differences. The approach is demonstrated using simple single-trace examples to build intuition, as well as selected field time-lapse data. An additional example illustrates how the same framework can be applied to synthetic-to-seismic matching in well-tie workflows. Overall, the work emphasizes time alignment as a first-order component of seismic data conditioning and provides a practical starting point that can be adapted to a wide range of seismic analysis applications.

Today marks the first day of GeoConvention — one of our favourite events of the year.

The Sound QI team will be onsite throughout the convention at Booth 217, and we would love for you to stop by and connect with us.

Our Team will be available throughout the event to provide demonstrations of the latest developments within Maestro, our flagship software. Whether you are already familiar with Maestro or are simply curious to learn more about what we have been working on, we would love to share more with you.

We will also have a few fun giveaways available for visitors throughout the event, you will want to stop by and grab for yourself.

Importantly, tomorrow - May 12, our own Felix Oghenekohwo, PhD, will be presenting as part of the GeoConvention technical program.

We're looking forward to seeing and meeting all of you over the next few days.
