Products & Services
Gulf Coast Velocity Data, Inc. has designed a functionally dynamic user interface to assist you in the search for well data. The purpose of this site is to offer a "one-stop shop" for customers to purchase, access, and download digital files.
As an account holder you will have access to view and print any of the data that you purchase, including; Time-Depth Charts/Graphs, Directional Surveys, pseudo-CheckShot Surveys (created dynamically from the Velocity Cube), etc.
To search for data from any of the available data sets, simply choose Text Search or Map Search.
Velocity Cube
Our Velocity Cube was developed by interpreting the Velocity Survey Sample Locations into a 3-D volume. This volume uses an IDW algorithim to interpolate between Cube nodes which returns psudo-Velocity values.
Velocity Surveys (Check-shot Surveys)
Our digital Velocity Survey data can be supplied in your choice of custom formats, or in industry standard formats, for import into any workstation environment.
All data have been thoroughly keyed in, analyzed and quality controlled by experienced geo-physicists. Regional velocity grids and models have been generated using Karl Thompson & Associated "SEISBASE III velocity modeling software.
Our velocity "cubes" have been extrapolated in the time/interval velocity domain using a local area "trend analysis" and also using our extensive mud weight data for accurate "top of pressure" picks assuring that the extrapolations are as accurate as possible.
Custom velocity volumes can also be constructed using your in-house stacking velocities and fault polygons, on a regional or local project area basis.
Directional Surveys
Our Directional Survey database includes 8,500 onshore wells. These Directional Surveys exist in an ASCII format, which contains original XY location, offset distance, MD, TVD, inclination, and XY location for each leg of survey.
Digital (LAS) Well Curves
We compiled a comprehensive Digital Curve database containing more than 60,000 locations; including, onshore and offshore.
Digital Well Logs
We have logs on over 122,000 wells in the state of Louisiana. We also have added "headers" onto these tiff images to show the API NUMBERS, WELL NAME AND LOCATION, information as well as MAP COORDINATES (either lat/long or X/Y locations).
We are currently scanning logs for other areas as well as adding missing wells in Louisiana.
Mud Weight & Temperature
We have combined our 12,100 well database of mud-weights and temperatures taken from deep South Louisiana wells, with the 34,000 well offshore mud-weight database to construct a "top of pressure" map for these areas (using the first occurrence of 12.5# mud). Maps on constant depth temperature datum's have also been made for South Louisiana.
We are also available to discuss any database construction project you may have in mind. We have the manpower and experience to aid in any new database project.
Sample Downloads
In an attempt to make it easier for users to identify data of interest, we are providing free data downloads.
These downloads are complete index listings of all of the available data from each of our databases. Additionally, preview maps are provided for each dataset to show locations for all data.
