Why it matters
|
What happens underground can change what happens above ground.
Fluid migration, pressure changes and evolving subsurface conditions can affect safety, operational performance, environmental risk and asset integrity. Yet conventional monitoring often relies on localized measurements, periodic surveys or surface observations that may leave gaps between instruments and between measurement intervals.
FlowTerra enables continuous, volumetric subsurface visibility. It helps teams detect meaningful changes earlier, understand how fluid dynamics evolve in 3D/4D, and focus investigation where and when it matters most.
INTELLIGENCE
Reveal how subsurface fluids move and evolve over time through dynamic monitoring and modelling.
SAFETY
Improve situational awareness and support earlier investigation of emerging subsurface risks.
OPTIMIZATION
Use qualified, time-resolved information to improve operational planning and resource management.
TRACEABILITY
Generate continuous, time-stamped outputs that support reporting, monitoring workflows and stakeholder confidence.

What makes FlowTerra Different
|
Continuous. Non-invasive. Built for operational reality.
Continuous monitoring. Dynamic modelling. AI-powered interpretation.
FlowTerra uses passive seismic monitoring and ambient-noise analysis to observe changes beneath the surface without the need for active seismic sources and, depending on the application, without drilling for the monitoring array. Surface sensors can operate autonomously and continuously, helping extend visibility between conventional measurement points and across larger subsurface volumes.
The result is not simply more geophysical data. FlowTerra combines automated processing with AI-powered interpretation to deliver qualified subsurface intelligence that clients can integrate into their existing engineering, reporting and operational workflows.

Mining Proof Point
|
Detect change early. Keep operations moving.
For tailings storage facilities, piezometers, inclinometers and visual inspections remain essential. FlowTerra complements them with continuous volumetric insight between measurement locations and at depth. In an operating TSF pilot, FlowTerra tracked seismic velocity changes associated with pore pressure, stress and stiffness evolution across the dam wall, helping engineering teams investigate changes before they affect operations.
See sooner. Act smarter.
- Better visibility of evolving conditions.
- Earlier investigation and preventive action.
- Volumetric insight between point sensors and into the foundation.
- Qualified information that supports engineering decisions and GISTM-aligned workflows.
