Gazprom Neft and Yandex.Terra to collaborate in software development for seismic operations

Products resulting from this collaboration will be adapted to analyse geo-seismic conditions throughout various regions of Russia.

This partnership envisages the joint processing of seismic data obtained from Gazprom Neft upstream assets, as well as organising seminars for employees at the Gazprom Neft Joint Scientific Research Centre. In addition to this, the initiative will also investigate issues relating to the integration of the proprietary Gazprom Neft GeoMate system with any software developed.

Gazprom Neft Technology Directorate Head Mars Khasanov commented: "We are already experienced in creating our own software, used successfully in place of similar imported products. Software products developed as part of the company’s Technology Strategy are not only widely used throughout the company, but are also continuously improved. Collaboration with Yandeх.Terra will further enhance our ability to develop new IT products and continue the implementation of the company’s „Electronic Asset Development (ERA)” project.
