Lynx Information Systems provides seismic data services, geophysical and GIS (Geographical Information Systems) services to the petroleum exploration industry worldwide. We offer a full range of services and software solutions for data handling, designed to ease the task of the explorationist who needs to use a combination of new and old data sets to work in a particular geographical area of interest.

Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are becoming a widely accepted tool in petroleum exploration. GIS provides a natural spatially-based working environment for the explorationist, and also allows data from many different specialisms to be integrated for analysis. Lynx's Geographical Information Systems (GIS) products and services include regional GIS data packages and GIS software add-ons for the industry leader in GIS software - ESRI ArcGIS. We also offer technical GIS services such as map digitising and geodatabase building.
Seismic data services include the scanning and vectorising of seismic hard-copy
sections and basemaps, and output of the seismic data in industry-standard formats such as SEG-Y
and UKOOA/SEG-P1. Additional seismic data services offered are seismic reprocessing, and the
reconciliation of data from disparate sources such as paper and tapes. We will handle the
reformatting issues involved in workstation loading of seismic data, to provide seismic data ready
for interpretation.
Seismic scanning and vectorising is available either as a
service through our service centres in London and Houston, or as a
software system for purchase.
Well log services include well tape processing, well log digitisation and well digitising software. We handle both digital and hardcopy well log data, and will output a complete verified and depth-matched dataset.

of risk. This GIS catalogues 205 fields in the region depicting the wide variety of prospects
and establishing trends. For more details click here.

Libya - Details Emerge of $10billion Redevelopment plans for oilfields [More...]
The Bloomberg newsagency reported 13 September 2009 that the Libyan government has approved a 12.1 billion-dinar ($9.86 billion) plan to redevelop 24 oilfields.
The National Oil Corporation will work with state-owned companies and foreign firms operating in the country, "without the entrants of new parties," to implement the plan, the Libyan government said in a statement posted on its web site. The project will be funded through borrowing from local banks.
The plan includes raising output from the Jalo oilfield by 100,000 bo/d, with an investment of 1.6 billion dinars. Another 1.3 billion dinars will be invested to boost production from the Nafoora oilfield by 130,000 bo/d.
Libya is seeking to raise crude production capacity from the present 1.8 Mmbo/d to 3 Mmbo/d by 2013,. The country has 5 billion barrels of oil untapped because they are difficult to develop or remote, accounting for 12 percent of its total oil reserves, according to the government.
