: Petrel is a software platform used in the exploration and
production sector of
the petroleum industry. It enables the user to interpret seismic data, perform well correlation, build reservoir models, visualize reservoir
simulation results, calculate
volumes, produce maps and design development strategies
to maximize reservoir exploitation.
Petrel allows you to interpret
and analyze seismic data, incorporate and interpret well logs and petrophysics,
build geological models, build and run simulation models and incorporate
production data.
The Petrel E&P software platform provides a full range of
tools to solve the most complex structural and stratigraphic challenges—from
regional exploration to reservoir development. Within a single environment,
geoscientists can perform the key geological workflows from stratigraphic and
seismic interpretation through fracture, facies, and geo-cellular property modeling to history matching and production
simulation.
