Reservoir Characterization Innovations in RokDoc 2025.4

RokDoc 2025.4 introduces a suite of refinements designed for subsurface teams who need efficient, dependable, and scientifically transparent workflows for seismic inversion, model building, and reservoir analysis. Every enhancement in this release addresses real project demands: faster interpretation, ease of collaboration, and the flexibility to adapt as your data and analytical requirements evolve.

The overhauled Custom Tracks interface helps pave the way for faster QC and workflow deployment. A clear designer panel lets you:

• Produce, edit, reorder, and adjust log name filters
• Duplicate tracks comprehensively so similar name filters can be used for each log/track type
• Combine seismic, log, and gather data in one place, helping you compare results and maintain QC consistency.
  
  

Here, we've constructed templates with log type and name filters to show fluid substitution cases for the various elastic logs as well as porosity with saturation and mineral volume track sets.

The saved custom tracks are included in the "Fluid Cases" and "Petrophysics" track sets and can then be deployed and interactively managed across all wells with the "Invert at the well QC". By making template management faster and more reliable, these improvements help teams standardize their auditing and analysis without shifting focus away from core geology and geophysics.

RokDoc 2025.4 makes it easier to work with diverse and multi-dimensional datasets:

• Viewer Zooming: Redesigned zoom in the 3D Map Viewer, Project Viewer, and Well Viewer uses cursor-aware scaling to let you move rapidly from high-level regional trends to fine, local details without extra effort.
• Measurement Points Anywhere: Measurement points are now portable. They can be placed, visualized, and exported from section and map views. This supports direct, reproducible reference across workflows, from standard peer review to time-lapse evaluations.
• Reservoir Monitoring Scene 3D Well Chronology: Time-aware visualization means wells can appear or be filtered by completion date, adding clarity and rigor to 4D monitoring or production studies.

Batch screen capture also gains practical enhancements in this release. RokDoc now alerts you if any data items need recalculating before export, preventing accidental outdated captures and maintaining the accuracy of your documentation. Simultaneous quantity capture and flexible layout options let you choose between capturing co-rendered data or isolating individual views, helping you produce clear images for QA, reporting, or regulatory submission without manual intervention. The result is a more consistent visual record that matches your current project state.

This workflow demonstrates 10 quantities captured across 10 saved views, meaning 100 tailored and consistent screenshots saved to disk in seconds! 

Targeted optimizations speed up calculations and responsiveness throughout the modeling process.

• Frequency Slice Filtering with P Stack: Now, you can include P Stack datasets in frequency slice filtering to clean up low frequency noise and stabilize frequency effects across multiple volumes. Now the entire Advanced SDC chain can be run with recipe inputs and MPI exports. This optimization of the workflow greatly improves useability, reduces user error, and decreases data conditioning turn-around time.
• The 3D Programmer processes and exports more rapidly.
• Timelapse Ji-Fi’s Full Vintage mode now has had some optimization improvements that improves mean-field coupled 4D results and improves algorithm efficiency.
  
  

These improvements allow users to iterate models more quickly, test ideas, and keep up with evolving project requirements.

The External Interface now supports horizons of any type within Python plugins. This unlocks user-built attribute analysis, so you can build plugins that produce or extract custom attribute maps of any 'type' (Trace RMS, Probability, VP, VS, etc.). These enhancements make it possible to integrate advanced analytics or machine learning models developed outside RokDoc directly into your workflow.

RokDoc 2025.4 is shaped by our client use cases and delivers upgrades that help subsurface teams interpret, document, and communicate with confidence. Every update is made to ensure your reservoir models are more reproducible, your documentation is up to date, and your analytic options are broader and deeper than ever before. As always, we welcome your questions and recommendations. Your feedback is essential as we continue to evolve RokDoc to meet the demands of advanced reservoir characterization.
