Well path design, drilling visualization, and real-time model updates
Petrel workflows improve operational efficiency by setting an environment to visualize and understand relationships between the drilling processes in the earth context.
Benefits
Maximize reservoir exposure by designing a well trajectory, understanding at initial stages the potential risks the well might be exposed to
Understand the relationship between actual undesired drilling events (well control, mud losses, wellbore stability, stuck pipe, etc.) in geological context
Monitor execution in a proactive manner in real time to ensure optimum well position and foresee potential risks when the actual well path trajectory is approaching a risk zone, deviations from planned well trajectory, and variations in the prognosis.
Well Path Design
Design well paths, identify surface locations, pick targets, and adjust trajectories dynamically in a 3D canvas to find the optimal solution.
Drilling Event Visualization for Petrel
Visualize undesired drilling events in geological context to enhance both the well design and the execution of drilling operations through a proactive risk management approach.
Real-Time Data Link
Accept streaming real-time data (via the Osprey Connect component)—including trajectory, logs, events, and other relevant data—from the InterACT real-time monitoring and data delivery application or other WITSML data sources. Real-time drilling workflows interact closely to update the earth model and well paths and make critical decisions during the drilling operation.
