Petrel by Schlumberger

Petrel, developed by Schlumberger, is a comprehensive software platform designed for the exploration and production (E&P) sector of the petroleum industry. It enables geoscientists and engineers to collaboratively interpret seismic data, perform well correlation, build reservoir models, and visualize simulation results within a unified environment.

Key Features:

• Integrated Workflows: Petrel offers a seamless environment for geophysical, geological, and reservoir engineering workflows, enhancing collaboration and efficiency.

  SLB

• Advanced Modeling: The platform provides tools for structural and stratigraphic modeling, including geocellular property modeling and history matching, facilitating accurate reservoir characterization.

  SLB

• Quantitative Interpretation: Petrel includes quantitative interpretation capabilities, such as predicting elastic and petrophysical properties from seismic angle stacks using machine learning tools.

  SLB Software

• Geomechanics Integration: The software integrates 3D and 4D geomechanics modeling and analysis workflows to understand subsurface behavior and plan wells in complex environments.
