Petrel Tutorial -

Structural modeling creates the framework for the reservoir, defining its geometry and boundaries.

Horizons represent continuous stratigraphic geological boundaries across the seismic volume.

Petrel is the industry standard for integrating subsurface data—from seismic interpretation to reservoir simulation—within a single 3D environment. This article covers the essential workflow, from data import to property modeling.

Use to distribute continuous properties like Porosity and Water Saturation. petrel tutorial

(CRS) so your data sits correctly on the map. This is done via Project Setup > Project Settings Define Units

Use an for porosity data and a Geometric or Harmonic Mean for permeability curves. Facies Modeling (Discrete Properties)

Right-click the Wells folder in the Input Pane, select Import Selection , and choose Well heads ( . ) . Map your columns to Well Name, X Coordinate, Y Coordinate, and Surface Elevation (KB) . Structural modeling creates the framework for the reservoir,

Set the vertical and horizontal units (meters or feet) to ensure consistent depth parsing. Step 2: Importing Subsurface Assets

Go to the workflow window. Select your upscaled grid, fluid properties, rock functions, initial conditions (pressure and saturation states), and development strategies.

: Go to the File menu and select Project Setup > Project Settings . This article covers the essential workflow, from data

: Launch Petrel and navigate to File > New Project . Set Coordinate Reference System (CRS)

Located on the left, it displays all imported raw data, including wells, seismic volumes, and surfaces.

Where you select actions (e.g., Make Horizons, Property Modeling).

Insert your interpreted horizon surfaces into the 3D grid. Petrel clips the surfaces precisely against the constructed fault pillars to maintain structural integrity. 4. Layering

Create the skeleton of the grid between horizons.
