Such a self-consistent reconstruction provides, for example, basement heat flow maps in time and space that include sediment blanketing and tectonic deformation effects as well as the complete thermal maturation and sedimentation history of a basin. TecMod’s main advantages are that it automatically computes the best fitting crustal and mantle stretching factors as well as paleo-water depth values and that lithosphere scale and basin scale processes are resolved simultaneously. The only input data required is a depth converted seismic interpretation of the basin in question but you can include additional geological and well data. TecMod solves for a sedimentary basin’s complete structural and thermal evolution in a self-consistent way. Proven technology with successful case studies performed all over the world.Structural and thermal modeling combined in one powerful software package.

Easy scenario analysis of complex basins.Metamorphic events: serpentinization, crustal and mantle phase transitions.Geological events: sea level changes, variations in atmosphere and seafloor temperature.Igneous events: breakup, underplating, sill intrusion.Tectonic events: rifting, uplift, flexure.Length-scales ranging from prospect to conjugate margin scale.Lithosphere, basin and reservoir processes are resolved simultaneously.Fully coupled structural, thermal, and infill modeling.Easy to use GUI with full physics control.The only input data required is depth converted interpreted seismic and additional well and geological data can be included for further model refinement. TecMod couples a two-dimensional forward model that simultaneously resolves for lithosphere and basin scale processes to an inverse scheme for automated model parameter update. The entire model predictions at a glance: TecMod’s postprocessor visualizes all model predictions including subsidence in time and space, hydrocarbon generation, and porosity.
