Who we are


The StratoBayes team combines many decades of scientific expertise with technology commercialisation. We have built probabilistic software for stratigraphic correlation and subsurface interpretation to geologists move from manual, visual correlations to transparent and uncertainty-aware models. This supports better technical and commercial decisions that can save million of £ and many tonnes of carbon.

Our background


The patent pending technology behind StratoBayes was developed by academic research at Durham University. StratoBayes arose at the intersection of Stratigraphy, Archaeology, Palaeontology and Statistical Modelling. What began as a research tool is now being developed into commercial software, shaped by feedback from industry practitioners and researchers.

What we believe


Risk & uncertainty is essential but is missing from existing correlation tools
Geological expertise can be formalised to create robust models
Automation & expert judgements are complementary
Better subsurface decisions require better models

The Team


We have a unique combination of stratigraphic expertise, probabilistic modelling, software engineering, and early-stage venture experience.

Automated & uncertainty aware subsurface correlation

Turn weeks of manual correlation into a traceable workflow. StratoBayes aligns well logs with various borehole data automatically, explores alternative correlation scenarios, quantifies the uncertainty, and exports reliable well tops with confidence intervals.
