The Lena River is one of the longest rivers in the world (4,400 km long). The Lena Delta Reserve is the most extensively protected wilderness areas in Russia.

Technoguide started developing the Petrel platform in 1997. The first commercial release was in 1998. Its unique visualization capabilities made it stand out from its competitors. In 2002 Technoguide was purchased by Schlumberger. Geoscience has advanced leaps and bounds with the developments Schlumberger has made to Petrel’s capabilities. Always good to see potential in an early product.

Another beautiful example of an outwash plain, also called a sandur, deposited by meltwater outwash at the terminus of a glacier. As it flows, the glacier grinds the underlying rock surface and carries the debris along. Sandurs are common in Iceland where geothermal activity accelerates the melting of ice flows and the deposition of sediment by meltwater. (Wikipedia).
