Shearwater Geoservices has introduced the Reveal Agent project, an upcoming AI assistant designed to operate within the Reveal seismic processing software. Developed in collaboration with NVIDIA, the agent aims to actively build, execute, and evaluate seismic processing flows rather than simply answering queries.
Built using a structured map of Reveal’s roughly 450 tools and trained on established processing workflows, the agent acts on natural language descriptions to generate and test processing sequences. In early testing, the agent successfully researched and constructed an adaptive subtraction flow matching best practices and substituted a computationally expensive ocean-bottom node clean-up step with a more efficient machine learning model. It can also autonomously iterate and refine existing flows based on specified performance scores.
Human oversight is central to the design, with users required to approve plans before execution and all steps recorded for subsequent review. The agent will be further developed into a commercial product over the coming months as Shearwater deepens its HPC and machine learning partnership with NVIDIA.
