GeoTomo was founded in Louisville, Colorado in 1998, and relocated to Houston, Texas in 2000.  The company develops high-end geophysical software products that help geophysicists around the world to image beneath the subsurface.  Oil and gas companies use GeoTomo’s software solutions to significantly reduce the risk and cost of finding and producing hydrocarbons.  Geophysical engineering companies use GeoTomo’s software products to image buried objects or near-surface layers. 

GeoTomo entered the oil and gas exploration industry from niche opportunities by providing software solutions including 3D TomoStatics interpretation, crosshole seismic data processing, and VSP survey design, modeling, and processing systems.  Over the past year, the company developed a uniquely new surface seismic data processing, inversion, and interpretation system - ThrustLine,  which was announced at the recent SEG conference in Dallas in November, 2003. 

The release of ThrustLine is an important milestone in the seismic industry.  This system is designed to conquer rugged topography, complex near-surface, and complex subsurface structures in a single workflow.  There has been no processing tool like ThrustLine before that integrates the high-end processing technology in such a fashion that can be routinely and efficiently applied for production work.  ThrustLine simply helps to complete impossible missions and save project cost significantly.

The success of GeoTomo is largely because of a dedicated development team that has been applying “simultaneous engineering” concept for developing software products.  Software designers, programming engineers, and collaborating users work in a team to make design, implementation, and testing nearly in parallel.  This simultaneous process ensures sophisticated design and consequently high-quality products.

Today GeoTomo is proud of being a global technology provider for the geophysical exploration industry.
