Chevron selects Schlumberger Petrel software
Software, Dec 03 2007

- Chevron has selected Petrel seismic-to-simulation software as one of its next generation interpretation and earth modeling frameworks.

The Petrel framework solution will be integrated with Chevron’s proprietary technology and deployed globally throughout its E&P organisation.


Chevron will use Petrel to develop and deploy proprietary geological and geophysical workflows and to standardise work processes.


Chevron and Schlumberger are developing a new reservoir simulator called Intersect. According to Chevron, the selection of Petrel as one of its solutions complements this development and will result in improved seismic-to-simulation workflows.

GoCAD 被抛弃了？

Noway. Gocad还在牵着Chevron的鼻子走。 今年4月，Gocad还到休士顿train Chevron's software developers.

SIS is going to market the chevron simulator.

PETREL is more handy than GOCAD, especially for geologist.

PETREL, GOCAD, JEWELL, etc are just tools. If you master the fundamental, then all these tools will work for you. The differences for these tools are their workflows. The software vendors put out these workflows to tie you to their product. To me, these workflows are good news and bad news. These workflows do save you a lot of time and lower the threshold of learning the software. However, that is also the bad news, a lot of people, myself included, when visualize the model, we visualize our model from the viewpoint of workflow instead of from data point of view. For example, PETREL use pillars, so naturally, we plan our PETREL model around pillars.
