The Oil Drop, a Dhahran Geoscience Society (DGS) magazine published the article: WAVES Launching:
 
EXPEC Advanced Research Center has successfully launched the first Aramco upstream fully commercialized software platform, known as WAVES©, at its new state-of-the-art Upstream
research center in Dhahran. The event took place on Wednesday, May 18th 2022, and was well attended by members of PE&D and Exploration management.
 
WAVES© (Wellbore Acoustics Visualization & Evaluation System), is an innovative and integrated acoustic data processing, analysis, and interpretation system for geological and petrophysical reservoir properties characterization. Geoscientists and engineers utilize WAVES© to provide advanced reservoir solutions such as fracture location and its direction in aid of completion strategy; anisotropy and dispersion analysis for formation stress estimates; azimuthal radial profiling for near wellbore drilling-induced alteration, permeability and bed boundary estimation, log-run optimization, moduli computation which is an input for completion and fracking designs, as well as 3D visualization capabilities.
 
The software has been used to process and analyze over 20,000 ft in 25 wells across several Aramco fields. WAVES© won the corporate innovation board award as the top commercialized technology in 2021. As a result of its unique innovative solutions, it has been granted and filed two and seven patents respectively, in addition to ten publications. Three oil and gas companies are presently evaluating WAVES© prior to adoption as part of the commercialization and marketing efforts by Colchis Petro-Consulting.
