Abstract

After a recent visit to the Geogulf 2025 conference in Nacogdoches. It became evident that some of the old “new “ideas for the future of Green energy transition were unrealistic. Many of these ideas are uneconomic as well. This brief talk will illuminate the ideas that were presented and make predictions for a brighter energy future. We are even seeing this with the recent news from Swepco about rolling brown outs in our area. Hopefully, we’ll be able to have the meeting on this day without having to cancel it due to the poor planning of the people in charge.

 

Biography

Kevin B. Hill is a highly trusted geophysicist thanks to his long record of success integrating geophysical technology with geology.

For more than 30 years, Hill Geophysical Consulting has generated the best structural and rock physics picture of what lies below the surface, specializing in all aspects of oil and gas prospect generation, prospect reviews, solution mining imaging, oil and gas storage, unconventional resource plays, seismic acquisition design, seismic processing, rock physics, AVO processing, AVO analysis, seismic modeling, and seismic hazard analysis. Kevin B. Hill founded his Shreveport-based consulting company in 1987, and has worked on thousands of projects in the US and abroad using the most cutting edge computing technology, including Kingdom, Petra, Hampson-Russell, Rock Solid Attributes, and Global Mapper. HGC is able to interpret seismic data via telecommute, if necessary, or Hill is available to travel with a portable workstation if that is what your project requires.

Kevin B. Hill and his staff recently completed seismic rock property studies of the Hosston, Cotton Valley, Bossier and Haynesville of North Louisiana and East Texas.  The studies involved the full integration of available engineering and well control with 2d and 3D seismic data.  Results showed “sweet spots” in the targeted formations could be brought out of the seismic data and be used to design the drilling programs to enhance the recovery of hydrocarbons.  HGC’s clients have put this seismic analysis to the test and have drilled better, less costly exploitation wells in their acreage.
