Petrel shale core

End-to-end workflow with an interface designed for shale, from exploration to production.

Overview

The Petrel™ shale core leverages Petrel subsurface software, providing a high-performance toolset tailored for high well count shale operations.

A fully integrated software for characterizing shale reservoirs from exploration to production

Chance of success maps can be kept live and linked to the geological inputs during shale play evaluation

Quickly and easily display and work with tens of thousands of wells and log data

Wells and pads can be designed and optimized in the context of geological and cultural data.

Applications

Integrated application for G&G, drilling and production workflows
Advanced well query and searches
Petroleum systems 1D modeling and chance of success mapping
Regional well correlation using raster and digital data
Seismic interpretation of 2D and 3D seismic

Benefits

Petrel shale core enables companies to perform 1D petroleum systems modelling, exploration mapping workflows, well correlation and seismic interpretation, well design, geosteering, and production forecasting. It is also fully integrated with the Studio E&P knowledge environment for collaborative workflows.

Production trends can by analyzed by linking historic production with geology.

Features

Fast and efficient mapping
Well design and pad planning
Geosteering using curve matching
Decline curve workflows using Arps & Duong methods
Collaborative, multiuser environment
