Remote Sensing Geologic Mapping/Lineament Studies

Geologic Mapping/Lineament Studies

Remote sensing data and imagery collected by satellite and aerial sensors are powerful methods for helping energy companies in exploration and production.

Spatial Energy offers a team of geoscientists who emphasize geologic exploration using satellite multispectral and airborne hyperspectral digital imagery and datasets in conducting image analysis, geologic exploration, and field surveying & logistics services.

Services provided by our team include mapping, modeling, and interpretation solutions that enable decision makers in oil and gas companies to improve their potential for successful discoveries, reduce risks, and control costs.

Geologic Mapping

Accurate mapping is of critical importance in oil and gas exploration. The risk and costs involved in establishing where to build infrastructure are simply too high to leave to inaccurate information - when so much is at stake, there’s no substitute for precise, up-to-date information.

Spatial Energy can help oil and gas operators and owners with their surface geologic mapping services to map or evaluate prospects for new oil and gas discoveries.

Spatial Energy provides professional specialists with years of experience working with both large multi-national and independent petroleum companies in many geologic basins worldwide.

Lineament Studies

Spatial Energy offers lineament analysis services that can be applied to surface lineament analysis for hydrocarbon reservoirs for oil and gas exploration and development.

Identifying linear features on satellite imagery, which are often called lineaments, are commonly interpreted as surface expressions of rock fractures which may provide pathways for seepage of oil and gas from subsurface reservoirs.

Data and Imagery Sources

Surface lineaments mapped for oil and gas are primarily derived from these sources and can be provided by Spatial Energy:

Digital Elevation Models
Aerial imagery
Satellite imagery
