What We Deliver
Insight-driven analysis for confident operational decisions across the shale value chain.

Holistic Rock Property Analysis
Integrating mineralogical, geochemical, petrophysical, and mechanical data for a unified understanding of shale behavior in the subsurface.

Scalable & Non-Invasive
Using legacy well logs and publicly available datasets, our workflows generate predictive shale models without the cost of additional coring or lab work.

Operationally Relevant Outputs
We focus on the properties that matter: reactivity and swelling risk, rock strength and creep, pressure regime and completion quality—delivered in formats your team can use immediately.
Technology-Driven Characterization
Through advanced correlations and machine learning, we generate rich, actionable formation insights using minimal input data.
How It Works
Our technology stack includes:
-
Mineralogy Modeling: Predicts detailed mineral composition, including Smectite contents, using AI-assisted interpretation of well logs.
-
Geomechanical Properties: Estimates rock creep and strength, and stress profiles based on regional calibration and advanced correlations.
-
Pore System Analysis: Identifies pore structure characteristics relevant for pressure transmission and production behaviour.
-
Swelling & Reactivity: Evaluates clay behavior and its impact on drilling and completion risks.
All outputs are delivered in client-ready formats that integrate seamlessly with earth models and well planning tools.

Applications Across the Well Lifecycle
Physiq.ai outputs are purpose-built for technical decision-making—before, during, and after the well is drilled.

Pre-Drill Planning
Identify potential formation barriers or reactive intervals, overpressured zones, and mechanical hazards early using log-derived rock property profiles.

Production Diagnostics
Correlate production performance with formation properties to refine landing strategy, frac design, and reservoir understanding.

Geomechanical Modeling
Use consistent, scalable strength and stress predictions to populate mechanical earth models—even in data-sparse wells.

Seal and Integrity Evaluation
Characterize shale barriers and vertical seals for use in wellbore isolation, abandonment planning, and subsurface containment risk assessment.

Completion Optimization
Target intervals with the highest frac efficiency potential based on mineralogy, pore structure, and mechanical constraints.

Carbon Storage Suitability
Evaluate shale formations for containment security, integrity, and stress response in support of CO₂ injection and storage projects.
