Published requirement description

RWM require access to specialist resources within the supply chain which have expertise in a diverse range of interpretation techniques, geological settings and industry backgrounds, in order to develop a comprehensive understanding of potential GDF locations to support the Site Evaluation Process. At this stage the requirement is to use legacy data and RWM’s soon to be acquired 2D and 3D seismic datasets to perform a series of geological interpretations which will begin the process of characterising the potential host rock volume. The Primary focus of this task is to interpret the available seismic data to produce a detailed understanding of the geometry and stratigraphy of the potential host rock volume, a secondary element is to combine this with legacy borehole data to enhance the characterisation. Additional aspects of the work which RWM may wish to discuss would include the use of other techniques such as rock physics and seismic inversion alongside geological modelling

This Prior Information Notice is to signal an intention to commence market engagement with those within the relevant professional services market and to alert the market to potential forthcoming tender exercise(s).

RWM require access to specialist resources within the supply chain which have expertise in a diverse range of interpretation techniques, geological settings and industry backgrounds, in order to develop a comprehensive understanding of potential GDF locations to support the Site Evaluation Process.

At this stage the requirement is to use legacy data and RWM’s soon to be acquired 2D and 3D seismic datasets to perform a series of geological interpretations which will begin the process of characterising the potential host rock volume.

The Primary focus of this task is to interpret the available seismic data to produce a detailed understanding of the geometry and stratigraphy of the potential host rock volume, a secondary element is to combine this with legacy borehole data to enhance the characterisation. Additional aspects of the work which RWM may wish to discuss would include the use of other techniques such as rock physics and seismic inversion alongside geological modelling etc…

RWM anticipate, that due to the complexity of some sites, there will be a range of possible interpretations and therefore are particularly keen to understand their probability and uncertainty. Additional information: RWM intends to hold market engagement sessions through May 2021 and June 2022 with industry experts and suppliers interested in potentially bidding for the resulting commercial agreement(s).

Please express your interest to be involved in this market engagement process by responding to this notice via the messaging function.
