GAEA digitizes paper, PDF and scanned geophysical logs into QA/QC-reviewed LAS 3.0 files for interpretation, modeling, correlation, archiving and software integration. All geophysical curve types are supported.
Submit representative source files for review. The final scope confirms source condition, curves, depth ranges, metadata and delivery requirements.
Projects can combine common modern curves, specialty measurements and legacy curve presentations. The list below shows representative—not limiting—examples.
Curve naming, units, scale direction, logarithmic or linear presentation and sampling interval are confirmed during source review.
The source image remains the visual reference. Calibration and tracing convert its curve positions into depth-indexed numerical values with project-defined mnemonics and units.
This shortened example illustrates depth, gamma ray, resistivity, sonic and caliper columns. A project file contains the complete agreed depth range and all scoped curves.
QA/QC focuses on faithfully representing the information visible in the source. It does not resolve information that is absent, illegible or internally inconsistent in the original record.
Identify tracks, curves, depth ranges, scales, units, gaps and image-quality limitations.
Align the image to its depth reference and confirm scale changes or discontinuities.
Define each linear or logarithmic curve scale and its direction within the track.
Trace and sample every scoped geophysical curve across the agreed interval.
Review available well fields, curve mnemonics, units, null values and sampling increment.
Compare digitized curves against the source and investigate deviations or unusual transitions.
Record ambiguous, missing, cropped or unreadable source information for project review.
Confirm file structure, column alignment, depth sequence and final project organization.
The online estimator provides an initial planning value. A final quotation follows review of representative source material.
The current page rate is shown as low as $0.60 per 100 curve feet. The estimator is not a binding quotation and may not include minimum charges, setup, difficult source material, metadata entry or special handling.
Small projects with consistent, legible images may be completed in hours or days. Multi-well archives and difficult sources are scheduled after inspection.
Identify wells, curve counts, depth ranges, source formats, required timing and any confidentiality requirements.
Provide complete sample images so scales, tracks, metadata, quality and project complexity can be reviewed.
Confirm the quotation and schedule, then receive QA/QC-reviewed LAS 3.0 files for the agreed project.
LAS 3.0 delivery makes legacy curves available for modern interpretation, correlation, modeling and preservation workflows.
Convert irreplaceable paper and image records into structured project data.
Use digitized curves for water-supply, hydrogeological and well-correlation work.
Recover vintage geophysical measurements for geological and resource interpretation.
Bring legacy curves into contemporary evaluation and correlation workflows.
Display geophysical evidence alongside boreholes and interpreted units.
Support formation-top, marker-bed and interval comparisons between wells.
Standardize large historical collections for search, exchange and future use.
Prepare curves for compatible interpretation, modeling and GAEA software workflows.
Well logs can contain proprietary project, resource and location information. Include handling requirements at the quotation stage so the transfer and production process can be agreed before source files are sent.

Open LAS resourcesDigitized geophysical curves are delivered in LAS 3.0 files. The files include the available well information, curve mnemonics, units, depth data, null-value convention and digitized curve values confirmed for the project.
All geophysical curve types are supported. This includes common gamma ray, spontaneous potential, resistivity, conductivity, sonic, density, neutron, caliper, temperature, fluid and specialty or legacy curves.
Submit representative PDF, TIFF, JPEG or PNG images for review. Paper records should first be scanned. Multi-page, multi-track, monochrome and colour records can be assessed during quotation.
The preliminary estimator uses the number of curves and their digitized depth range to calculate curve feet. Image condition, headers, scale changes, annotations, minimum project requirements and special handling can affect the final quotation.
Small projects with clear, consistent source images may be completed in hours or days. Final timing depends on the number of wells and curves, depth range, image quality, scale changes, required metadata and current production schedule.
The workflow includes source review, depth and scale calibration, curve tracing, mnemonic and unit checks, visual comparison against the source, anomaly review and a final LAS 3.0 file check. Ambiguous source information is documented for review.
Identify confidentiality, NDA, transfer and retention requirements when requesting a quote. GAEA Technologies will confirm the appropriate project-specific transfer method and handling requirements before sensitive files are submitted.
LAS is a widely used exchange format for well-log data. Confirm LAS 3.0 compatibility and the required curve conventions with the software that will receive the files. GAEA also provides a free LAS toolkit for viewing and checking LAS data.
