Petabytes of seismic data. Growing every survey. Most of it never touched again.
RNDA encodes waveforms at acquisition and discards the originals. Storage costs crater. Proprietary survey data can't be stolen if it doesn't exist.

Seismic surveys generate petabytes of waveform data. Storage, retrieval, and reprocessing are the dominant infrastructure costs. Every query requires decompressing raw data before processing.
How RNDA Solves It
Proven on 10,000 real geological waveforms
Real IRIS/EarthScope waveform data across multiple geological stations. Encoded, queried, and validated at production scale.
Waveform similarity search at 30ms
Submit a raw seismic waveform — RNDA finds the most geologically similar historical records in milliseconds. Discrimination gap 0.97 — same geological station clusters at 0.4–1.0, different stations near zero.
Binary waveform queries
The waveform IS the query. No text description needed. Submit new survey data and find similar historical formations from 40 years of archives. Raw data permanently discarded after encoding.
Survey data without survey data storage
Encode at acquisition, discard raw waveforms before transmission. Only signatures reach the archive. Storage costs crater.
How RNDA Applies
Storage Elimination
Seismic waveform data compressed 14.3x eliminates expensive on-prem tape archives and cuts cloud storage bills for multi-basin 3D surveys. A 500 TB seismic library costs $9,650/year post-RNDA versus $138,000/year uncompressed — a 93% reduction.
Privacy Protection
Proprietary subsurface survey data and reservoir models are encoded in a form that cannot be reverse-engineered. Competitors who compromise storage infrastructure get 256-byte signatures, not exploration targets or acquisition parameters.
Compliance Management
MMS/BSEE data retention mandates for offshore operators require multi-decade preservation of seismic records. RNDA enables 40-year seismic archives without exponential storage budget growth — compliance cost scales with signature count, not data volume.
Intelligent Retrieval
Submit any seismic waveform and find the most geologically similar historical formations in 30ms. Proven on 10,000 real IRIS/EarthScope waveforms — discrimination gap 0.97. Same geological station clusters at 0.4–1.0, different stations near zero. Time-to-insight from days to minutes.
Collaborative Intelligence
Joint-venture partners and service companies share compressed seismic representations across organizational boundaries without exposing raw proprietary acquisition parameters. Only signatures cross the boundary — the subsurface intelligence travels without the data.
Storage Impact
Industry stat: Oil & gas seismic archives range from a few TB to 2 petabytes per company; a single land survey generates 2 TB per 8-hour shift (StoneFly / Rigzone)
500 TB × 20% × $276/TB ÷ 14.3x compression (mid-size operator)
500 TB seismic library saves ~$128K/year — 93% storage reduction on real IRIS/EarthScope waveform data

What Becomes Possible
"A new seismic survey is acquired in an unexplored basin. The raw waveform data is encoded and permanently discarded at acquisition. In 30ms, RNDA queries 10,000 historical waveform signatures and returns the most geologically similar surveys — along with their known outcomes. The original survey data never exists in the system."
