Focused on providing the basis for a quantitative seismic interpretation, AVO, Rock Physics, and Petrophysics techniques aim to deliver, within integrated workflows via upscaling processes, the link between elastic and rock properties such as porosity, mineralogy, pore shape, fractures, and stresses. Lateral variations of statics and dynamics properties play an important role in complex reservoirs modeling. Being spatially predictive using Seismic Inversion results calibrated by Rock Physics and Petrophysics analyses are key factors in the geological and geomechanical model building process. Theoretical and applied results developed by Industry and Academia are welcome and can include, but not limited to, the following methods:

The topic of Data Acquisition & Devices covers a broad range of geophysical methods, including research and development of equipment and techniques. Their focus is to recover as much information from the subsurface as possible, in an affordable and, most importantly, sustainable way, including the introduction of new devices to allow for better data quality and more efficient acquisitions. Sessions in this topic will cover many aspects of acquisition, including:

Processing of geophysical data, which is closely related to digital signal analysis, aims to treat data acquired in the field through seismic, gravimetry, electromagnetic, radar and other techniques. Data processing can be used to improve signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), address interfering signals, gather and analyze statistical information, and even infer missing data, among many other uses. Presentations in this topic are welcomed, with suggested focus in the following themes:

This session is dedicated to geophysics applications focused on bringing insights to different geological environments. The section involves qualitative, semi-quantitative and quantitative analysis of several geophysical methods and their interpretation in terms or geology. Some topics are suggested below:

ESG (Environmental, social and governance) is one of the most important issues at the moment, not only for Industry but also for Academia. The agenda is driven by many challenges, particularly, climate change. For example, the urgency to find solutions for clean, affordable, and safe energy calls for efforts from several expertises. Geoscientists have an important role to play in this agenda. We invite authors to submit contributions that explore the following topics:

Geophysics has always been a very multidisciplinary field, and computers have been a part of this science for many years. Recent advances have made this relationship much closer, with Geophysical applications ranked among the top HPC users in the world. The technical session AI & HPC will focus on how these topics can enable geoscientists to combine data- driven and physical-based modeling in complex environments and with fast, high-quality decisions. We invite presenters in the following and related topics:

This technical session is dedicated to the use of geophysical methods applied to mineral exploration, groundwater investigation and environmental characterization. It involves a broad range of activities commonly, but not exclusively, related to the sub-fields of Exploration Geophysics, Environmental Geophysics, Archaeo-Geophysics, Hydro-Geophysics, Glacio-Geophysics, Marine-Geophysics and Hydrography, including different topics such as:

The ability to deal with complex geological models and generate synthetic data is paramount in Geophysics, especially regarding the scales involved and the way to access the related uncertainties. Model Building is an important tool for survey design, imaging, interpretation, fluid flow simulations, well drilling activities, security and many other applications. This is an integrated field, where the expertise and knowledge of geoscientists play equal roles to complex data inversion algorithms. We invite authors of this very multidisciplinary area to contribute with works related to:

The Multiphysics session brings together contributions from different geophysical methods covering methodological and applied content to different sectors of Academia and Industry. Currently, the challenges to understand the geological evolutionary processes added to the difficulty of imaging emphasize the importance of combining different geophysical methods, adding reliability and reducing ambiguities in the interpretation. The contribution of these methods to mining, oil & gas, environmental and solid Earth are widely known to the scientific community. We invite presenters to share your experiences regarding the Geophysical Methods listed below:

Geoscientists use Remote Sensing to register and understand the Earth’s geophysical processes. From proximal to orbital technologies, Remote Sensing can be used for geophysical, geological and geothermal energy exploration, and evaluation for environmental geology and geotechnical engineering, among other fields. We invite the community to contribute to this session, suggesting the following themes:

The Technical Session Reservoir Geophysics comprises technical discussions and oral and poster presentations from a broad set of disciplines, technologies and methodologies, involving a full range of industries, state and private companies' professionals as well as academia researchers, and involving areas such as:

The goal of Model Building & Seismic Imaging methods is to produce reliable subsurface property models, either for interpretation or to serve as input for imaging techniques, as well to generate high resolution (broadband) images of the subsurface from seismic data. Usually, the accuracy of such methods is evaluated from a structural (kinematic) standpoint, but novel techniques such as FWI Imaging, Elastic FWI and Least Squares Migration aim to be dynamically accurate as well. Such novel approaches, together with current challenges pertaining to complex geological settings and deeper imaging targets, have kept this field current in both Industry and Academia. Oral and poster sessions in this topic will focus on novel and well-known approaches in this field, including but not limited to:

This topic covers a broad range of disciplines that address the quantitative analysis of the structure, dynamics and evolution of the Earth including continental/oceanic crust and lithosphere. We encourage oral and poster contributions in all topics listed below but not restricted to them.

The technical session on Engineering and Environmental Geophysics covers a wide range of Engineering applications where geophysical data and methods play a major role, encompassing but not limited to Geotechnical, Petroleum and Mining. The main topics expected to be presented and discussed in this session involve:
