Ortigosa concluded, "Project Kaleidoscope builds on Repsol's long tradition of innovation in seismic imaging. From the beginning of our E&P activity in the Gulf of Mexico, we have been strongly committed to imaging technology. We developed an in-house processing facility characterized by a remarkable efficiency resulting from innovative integration of software and hardware. The concept is already proven. Now we are replicating this success model at a larger scale."
