Petrel E&P Software Platform overview

What is Petrel E&P Software Platform?

Petrel E&P Software Platform is an on-premise oil and gas software designed to help engineers and geoscientists analyze subsurface data related to exploration, production, and more to create a shared vision of the reservoir. The platform enables companies to standardize workflows across E&P and make informed decisions based on both opportunities and risks.

Key features of Petrel E&P Software Platform include project explorer, fracture modeling, volume-based modeling, depth synthetics, data recovery, well log headers editing, integrated fault seal analysis, and fault transmissibility scaling. The application allows managers to generate ensembles of VISAGE finite-element geomechanics simulations, apply variables and vary properties, and present geomechanics summary findings based on individual simulations, selected regions, or numerous examples in an ensemble.

Petrel E&P Software Platform lets teams export depogrid cases by optimizing data footprint and runtime, ensuring a substantial reduction in re-export time. The system allows engineers to identify severely stressed faults in the subsurface while defining field development plans.
