Across the breadth of hydrocarbon exploitation there is uncertainty from acquisition, analysis, application, technology, and economics, all the way to timing and resources. This array of variability presents a significant challenge in assessing the viability of recovering hydrocarbon.

The key is to quantify these unknowns into probabilistic risks related to the engineered recovery mechanisms.

Petrel™ uncertainty enables the quantification of not only geophysical and geological uncertainties but also time- and pressure-based reservoir uncertainties to provide comprehensive coverage of the quantification of the incertitude.

  • Maximizing reservoir contact by investigating different well path scenarios using uncertainty workflows in Petrel RE.
  • Investigate the impact variables can have on total production by harnessing the power of different uncertainty parameterization.
  • Access the impact of key geological and dynamic uncertainties on STOIIP, production and other measures
  • Integrate connectivity studies with petrophysical, geoscience, and engineering domains
