CGG’s first upstream software, Integral appeared in 1984. More recently the appearance of Stratimagic brought a new paradigm to E&P software with the productizing of licensed oil company developed technology. Stratimagic plugs and plays with industry standard frameworks such as OpenWorks and GeoFrame. Stratimagic’s success led to the founding of a Houston-based unit, focused on the growing software business.
