About BlueQube
GGI, magnetics, video and LiDAR data are collected from the aerial platform
...a step change in resolution
The Technology
BlueQube is the next force in oil and gas exploration. Providing an accurate picture of subsurface geology, it is a powerful imaging tool that can stand alone or sit alongside seismic and EM.
It is a multi-disciplinary approach that allows you to economically image structure quicker, easier and in a range of challenging geologies.
ARKeX flies a survey grid over your target area and employs an optimized blend of technologies to match the imaging challenge.
Data sets collected include:
- Gravity Gradiometry
- Magnetic Gradiometry
- LiDAR (digital terrain mapping)
- Digital Video.
This data is then processed and interpreted to provide you with a clearer picture and better understanding of your geology.

Resolution Speed and Cost
Good exploration is all about reducing risk and delivering results in a time and cost-efficient manner. This is achieved by the acquisition of accurate geophysical data and obtaining a better interpretation of your geology.
With BlueQube's advanced Gravity Gradiometry Imaging it delivers the necessary clarity and detail you need in a fully integrated 3D Earth model. With a step change in resolution over conventional gravity BlueQube is able to deliver information fast and cost-effectively.
How?
- As the aircraft flies over the terrain, large areas can be quickly surveyed
- Exploration can often involve difficult terrain like mountains, forests, deserts and transition zones; BlueQube is unaffected by these
- Complementing your seismic and EM data, BlueQube adds to your geological picture giving you the information you need to make the right decisions at the right time.
... An integrated answer
The key to BlueQube's success is its multi-disciplinary approach. Data from the BlueQube acquisition can be easily integrated with existing 2D/3D seismic or EM data. This way the complete picture can be built up using all the available geophysical properties.
Why?
Even the best seismic data often fails to deliver in complex geological situations. This can leave you with uncertainty over your prospects.
Complementing seismic surveys with the high-resolution imaging capability of BlueQube to form an integrated subsurface picture, can deliver the clarity you need to validate or verify your seismic data and your prospects. This then allows interpreters to choose drill locations with greater confidence.
In the majority of cases no one data set can provide a 100% risk reduction and most projects require information from complementary techniques. The key to using these techniques lies in the integration of the data.
BlueQube is more than just data capture, it is the workflow and methodologies required to truly use a multi-disciplinary approach to resolve geologic uncertainty and provide a more complete geologic picture.
BlueQube can help you in a range of different geologies
...Right for you?
No one technology solves all exploration problems and BlueQube is no exception, in the right geologic setting BlueQube delivers outstanding results, so is BlueQube right for you?
To help you decide, ARKeX will run a feasibility model on your target areas to determine if BlueQube is right for you and your geology. The modeling service will help you gain a better understanding of what the BlueQube can deliver.
