Seequent, The Bentley Subsurface Company, today introduced Leapfrog Energy, expanding the company’s offering to the energy industry to help solve the challenges of the rapidly evolving transition. Leapfrog Energy brings together Seequent’s geological modeling solution and geostatistical capability, along with the company’s experience in geothermal, mining, civil engineering and environment, into a targeted industry solution.

Leapfrog Energy enables rapid understanding of subsurface properties, from even the sparsest amount of data, to help identify energy resources, assess ground conditions for offshore wind projects, and find locations for carbon capture, utilization, and storage.
Jeremy O’Brien, Energy Segment Director, Seequent, said, “Seequent is a market leader in the geothermal industry with our geological modeling software Leapfrog. It feels like a natural step to extend Leapfrog to the rest of the energy industry, with a number of energy companies already using it for their energy transition initiatives.”
Within the wind industry, Leapfrog Energy will bring clarity to the complexities of the sea floor and subsurface, helping wind operators understand how and where to site turbines using integrated ground modeling and structural design workflows.
O’Brien added, “Subsurface specialists need flexible and fast tools like Leapfrog Energy to understand subsurface conditions and share their knowledge in a way that resonates with technical and non-technical stakeholders.”
Leapfrog Energy can be complemented with other solutions in the Seequent portfolio, including cloud collaboration tool Seequent Central, which allows multidisciplinary teams to track and share data, and our UXO solution for marine surveys. Seequent’s PLAXIS, for geotechnical analysis, and geophysics solution Oasis Montaj have been used in exploration by the energy majors for more than 30 years.
Graham Grant, Chief Executive Officer, Seequent, said, “Seequent’s comprehensive portfolio of subsurface solutions helps industries understand the subsurface to help them make clear, confident decisions, reach outcomes quickly, reduce cost and risk, and accelerate their innovation. The energy industry is in the midst of one of the largest industrial transitions in modern history. We understand this transition is complex, and that all parts of the energy industry have a key role to play. Seequent is committed to continue supporting the industry as it navigates the challenges and opportunities ahead.”
