1 E&P SOLUTIONS Petrel TIPS&TRICKS from SCM Knowledge Worth Sharing Petrel Inspector The Petrel Inspector was introduced in Petrel 2012 and was augmented with new features in Petrel It contains a variety of useful features to help locate data and edit objects. The topics covered by this Tips & Tricks are: 1. Interrogation of project objects (2012) 2. Examining object attributes (2012) 3. Adjust style and display settings (2013) 4. Process and tool interaction (2013) The Inspector Workflow: The basic workflow is simple: 1. Display an object 2. Start Inspector 3. Select Object 1

2 Interrogation of project objects: The inspector was introduced in Petrel 2012 and can be used to identify and review attributes of displayed objects. The 2013 Inspector has greatly enhanced capabilities, permitting the user to modify the display of objects. 1. Start the Inspector. a. Select: View > Inspector b. Without an object selected, the Inspector allows only the settings to be opened. 2. Inspector settings are: a. Fit height to content (default) b. Continuous permits real-time value readings following the cursor c. Link will limit the tool to a specific window d. Opacity controls the visibility of the object displayed 3. Select a well with displayed logs using the pointer tool (P hotkey). a. The Inspector shows the well attributes for the selected location along the wellbore. b. Change the settings to Continuous. Note how the values follow the cursor. c. Values displayed will change for the type of selected object. 2

3 Examination of Object Attribute: 1. The following Inspector example shows the 2012 (left) and 2013 (right) versions of Inspector. a. The 2012 version of Inspector has limited attribute interrogation abilities. The example below uses the Gulfaks C7 well (North Sea). b. The 2013 version offers expanded interaction to the Info and Style tabs from the Object Settings, with limited interactive editing for style and display. c. The 2013 version also offers access to selected spreadsheet views. 3

4 Examination of Object Attributes: 1. The following Objects are recognized by Inspector. Each object will have data-dependent General, Info, Style 'tabs' for examination: a. Seismic object types Inlines, crosslines, time slices Random lines Composite lines Polylines Any seismic intersection Mistie-corrected lines 3D seismic cubes (SEG-Y, ZGY formats) Cropped 3D volumes and 2D lines Virtual attributes Surface attributes Horizon attributes Blue button intersections Horizon and fault interpretation Extracted fault patches Geoprobes Geobody Seismic objects generated from seismic calculator b. General object types 3D grid edges/faults 3D grid intersections 3D properties Annotations Bitmap, Bitmap Log Checkshots Contacts Control point Cross plots Design point Extracted fault patches Fault model Filters Functions General intersection Geological target Histograms Horizons from model Local/global grid Pillar grid 4

5 Points Polygons Skeleton Simulation cases Simulation grids (time) Streamlines Studio objects Surfaces Velocity data Volumetric objects Wavelets Well completions Well log Well seismic Well tops Well plan Well trace Process and tool interaction: Petrel 2013 introduced a new level of process - tool - manager, interaction. In this example, Inspector, Well Path Design (new), and Well Path Designer are all active. 1. Following the 'Make Run' with Well Path Design, the New Plan object is created. 2. Right-Click on the New Plan allows the start of Well Path Designer. 3. Selection with Inspector shows the interactively editable fields. This configuration allows the user to interactively edit in three different modes. 5
