Statement of Work: 2D and Selected 3D Seismic-Reflection

Interpretations (PR 0040492482)

I. WORK REQUIREMENTS

A. Technical Requirements

1. Describe specific work requirements and work products:

At the vendor’s workplace, the vendor will:

• Conduct work at their business address.

• Load all 2D SEGY files into a complete Kingdom seismic software project, and selected 2D and 3D SEGY files into OpendTect seismic software projects. SEGY files will be shipped to the vendor on USB drives by the USGS as they become available. Processed 3D data files will be provided as a single SEGY file – not individual inlines and crosslines. Cartigraphic reference system is State Plane XY

(US Survey Feet – Zone 901 [Florida East]). Also load well log (caliper, gamma ray, induction, borehole compensated sonic) data from asci files with locations provided in same State Plane XY reference system. (Examples of southeastern

Florida canal, land, and marine data acquisition and general processing parameters, and seismic profiles can be found in the methods sections, figures, and plates of three USGS publications (https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2015/5013/, https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2017/5109/sir20175109.pdf, and https://pubs.er.usgs.gov/publication/sir20185117). These publications show the anticipated depths, geologic ages, and seismic sequences to be interpreted within the seismic data. Samples of SEGY files acquired in canals for the USGS in a recent southeastern Florida study can be assessed at an online data release:

https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/56ec46cde4b0f59b85da14d8. Seismic data will be from a single sourced geophysical acquisition company and no more than two different processing vendors. Most seismic data will be interpreted to depths of about 2,000-3,600 ft and deepest rock formations of lower Eocene to middle Eocene age.

• Vendor must use Kingdom and OpendTect seismic software to be compatible with the existing legacy Kingdom SMT and OpendTect seismic software projects in progress at the USGS office in Davie, Florida.

• As software updates and new functionality becomes available to Kingdom and

OpendTect software the vendor will review potential application to project needs using the updates and new functionalities with the USGS.

• Provide guidance, twice a year, to the USGS project lead on methods and workflows used with Kingdom and OpendTect software and document the guidance in PowerPoint explanations.

• Review and confirm previous seismic-to-synthetic seismogram correlations.

Complete new ones as data becomes available, completion of this task includes utilization of the Kingdom seismic software plugin SynPak. Synthetic seismograms generated recently for a USGS project focused on southeastern

Florida are available online at:

https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/585aaefde4b01224f329b6a4 and https://pubs.er.usgs.gov/publication/sir20175109, plates 1 and 2.

• Using Kingdom software, interpret and map key horizons (includes Paleocene to

Quaternary seismic stratigraphic units and where possible Cretaceous units on all

2D SEGY data sets.

• Create, QC, and update an integrated onshore/offshore velocity depth model in

Kingdom software. The vendor will the use the modified depth model to create or update depth-converted structure maps and depth-converted vertical seismic profiles. The velocity depth model will be based on interval velocities.

• At least every two months, produce PowerPoint summary updates of interpreted seismic lines and associated time and depth-converted structure maps. Include depth converted seismic profiles in SEGY format for the seismic lines and horizon grid files for time and depth structure maps. Ship as electronic files on

USB or external hard drives to the USGS in Davie, Florida and provide a

Microsoft Teams telemeeting with USGS Project lead to review the new products.
