Our quality focus and commitment to efficient and predictable access to new capabilities will continue, allowing you to proactively plan your deployment procedure.
The Ocean Store currently supports 120 commercial plug-ins for Petrel 2014 in the areas of geophysics, geology, petrophysics, reservoir modeling, reservoir engineering, drilling, production, and information management. Ocean plug-ins can be used with all Petrel platform updates. Schlumberger works closely with many software vendors to bring additional technologies to the Petrel platform.
Petrel 2014 continues the step-change in software beta test methodology introduced in the Petrel 2013 beta program. The Petrel platform architecture tracks and audits beta testing, ensuring the broad range of capabilities is consistently and comprehensively tested. For the 2014 release, this involved more than 70 oil and gas companies across the spectrum of majors, independents, and national oil companies, as well as internal resources.
