Why Seismos
The measurement foundation for closed-loop fracturing
The measurement foundation for closed-loop fracturing
The Difference
Seismos is the only company that directly measures subsurface friction components from the surface. No downhole tools. No fiber. Pumper-agnostic. Validated at R²=0.92 against fiber optic ground truth across 100,000+ stages.
Comparisons
Treating pressure is a composite signal combining pipe friction, perforation friction, and reservoir effects. SAFA separates these components in real time. No friction model estimation. No guesswork.
Fiber optics provide ground-truth measurement but require physical installation. SAFA delivers R²=0.92 correlation with fiber data from surface-based acoustic sensors — at 1/10th the cost, on every well, with zero non-productive time.
Post-stage analysis tells you what happened after the stage is over. SAFA measures what's happening during the stage — when you can still act. Real-time measurement enables intra-stage interventions that prevent permanent production loss.
A 0.1 improvement in Uniformity Index correlates with 2.5% first-year production increase and ~$300K in additional NPV per well. Across a development program, the cost of not measuring compounds into millions in irreversible value loss.
How We're Different
No fiber. No wireline. No downhole tools. Seismos delivers real-time cluster-level diagnostics from a surface sensor installed in under an hour.
| Surface Acoustic (Seismos) | Downhole Fiber (Industry Standard) | |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | <1 hour, surface transducers | Cement fiber behind casing |
| Works with any pumper | Yes — pumper-agnostic | Tied to service provider |
| Real-time closed-loop | Yes — with any frac fleet | Monitoring only |
| Retrofit to existing wells | Yes | New wells only |
| Cost per stage | Lower | Higher |
| Survives extreme temps | Yes (surface-based) | Limited by fiber spec |
| Fiber correlation | R²=0.92 validated match | — |
Independence
Seismos works with any pumping company on any well. Your completions intelligence shouldn't be locked to a single service provider. The measurement is independent of the execution — meaning operators get an unbiased view of completion quality regardless of which fleet is on location. The company executing the frac should not be the only one grading its quality.
Scale
100,000+ stages of measured completion data. Every deployment improves the AI recommendation engine. Operators with larger, higher-quality datasets see compounding returns. This structural advantage grows with every stage.
