RokDoc 2025.4 continues our focus on building tools that let users move quickly from raw well and seismic data to defensible interpretations without friction, repetition, or time-consuming setup. This release emphasizes both power-user flexibility and practical automation, especially in quality control, property prediction, and workflow reproducibility. In this post, we’ll dig into both the latest features and the subtle workflow boosts you’ll notice every day.
Multi-well Wavelet Estimation continues to improve:
Flexible Quality Control, Persistent Visual Auditing
Wavelet estimation remains fundamental to robust seismic inversion and rock property prediction. In RokDoc 2025.4, the Multi-well Wavelet Estimation (MWWE) workflow adds extensive color palette controls for QC across both wells and volumes.
You can now:
- Assign unique color schemes by volume or by well. If you’re trying to quickly compare how each well contributes to your combined wavelet estimate, you’ll see groupings at a glance. Comparing multiple volumes? Now you can differentiate them immediately without combing through tables.
- Make and persist your color assignments, so the same visual schemes reappear any time you or your colleagues review results or batch-reprocess the project.
- Assign custom colors for individual volumes or wells, offering multi-dimensional review protocols.
These features are all available directly within the MWWE Results tab (and right-click menu), so you can tailor interpretation and communication to your preferences and your team’s standards.
Quickly arrive at wavelet summary plots, colored by well or volume. Session functionality allows users to update results with different parameters, input data, and conditioning workflows.
Automated Elastic Log Calculation: Setup to Project-Scale Deployment
Efficient calculation and management of elastic logs from Vp-Vs-Rho sets is a core daily task for many geoscientists. Elastic property logs like AI, SI, Vp/Vs, Young's Modulus, and Poisson's Ratio can now be generated and managed automatically across all Vp-Vs-Rho log sets, governed by your project-level configuration. Set your preferred elastic logs centrally, and RokDoc will keep every well updated with no more manual recalculation, version mismatches, or confusion about which intervals have been refreshed. Batch management tools let you update legacy wells or rapidly adjust large projects, supporting the scientific integrity and repeatability that rigorous work demands. Here’s how to enable and use it:
1. Set Your Desired Elastic Logs in Project Settings
Begin by opening the Global or Project Settings dialog and navigating to the “Log” tab. Here, you’ll find a list of supported elastic logs. Select which logs should be calculated automatically from your Vp-Vs-Rho sets.
2. New Vp-Vs-Rho Sets Automatically Generate Elastic Logs
Any new Vp-Vs-Rho set created after activating auto elastic logs will produce the full list of selected logs. These are named according to log type and suffixed by the Vp-Vs-Rho set name, so they’re easy to track within the project.
3. Review and Update Multiple Sets
If you’re working in a mature project with existing data, open the Edit Vp-Vs-Rho Log Sets dialog. Here, you’ll see a list of all your sets and can quickly toggle the auto-creation (“Auto Elastics”) flag on or off for each. You can also update your list of generated logs or remove unnecessary ones as the project matures.
4. Stay Up to Date
Any changes to the underlying data or log selection in a Vp-Vs-Rho set will automatically refresh the elastic log calculations, keeping your interpretation current as inputs evolve. If a set is deleted or the feature disabled, unnecessary elastic logs can be pruned with a single click.
The result? Whether you’re onboarding a new project or retrofitting your favorite workflows, you eliminate repetitive recalculation and keep all team outputs standardized and scientifically credible.
Visualization: Probability Logs, Clearer Smarter Log Tracks, Focused Interpretation
Making sense of increasingly complex datasets depends on flexible, insightful visualization and RokDoc 2025.4 brings tangible advances here:
Probability Sets for Workflow Summaries
Probability logs and their linked facies or lithology have always been central to quantitative interpretation. This release introduces Probability Sets: now, probability logs generated during Bayesian Classification or RPML are grouped and managed in the well viewer, so you can instantly assess, track, and export these alongside their related facies or lithologies. Toggle dividing lines, organize logs with a single right-click, and streamline QA of your probabilistic classifications.
Cleaner Views for Volume Fraction Sets & Saturation Sets
Alongside Probability Sets, you can now display and toggle dividing lines between volume fraction and saturation logs with a right-click in the track display. This means more clear log tracks at whatever zoom you need.
Navigation and Log Review: Intuitive, Scientific Control
RokDoc 2025.4’s upgraded controls offer improved data navigation controls!
-
Well Viewer Zoom: Hold Control and use the mouse wheel to zoom into detailed log intervals for events or anomalies, or quickly pull back for whole-well trend evaluation. The flexibility to move from whole-well to layer-scale views supports everything from quick QC to rigorous interpretation.
-
Project and 3D Map Viewer Zoom: Mousewheel zooming, now linked to cursor location, dramatically improves both efficiency and the spatial context of geological reviews. Map-based evaluation of well placement, stratigraphy, or lateral trends is now smoother, supporting exploration and development planning in a more interactive and responsive way.
Combined, these controls remove the friction of navigation and lets users devote more cognitive effort to science, rather than battling interface limitations.
Bringing It All Together: Productivity, Scientific Integrity, and Team Communication
RokDoc 2025.4’s upgrades to QC visualization, reproducible log workflows, and hands-on navigation capabilities all aim to empower geoscientists to produce higher-quality, audit-ready interpretations faster. Whether conducting detailed cross-well QC, preparing reports for partners, or leading field studies, the new release provides tools that scale scientific rigor without increasing operational burden.
If your team needs step-by-step workflow demonstrations or would like to spotlight results using these new tools, we encourage you to reach out for a future feature focus! Your experience and feedback directly inform our development roadmap.
