Installing the HRS Petrel Data Plugin


HampsonRussell Petrel plugins are compatible with Petrel versions of the same year. For
example, Petrel Plugin 2020 is compatible with Petrel 2020. Also, only one plugin version can be
installed at a time.

If your plugin does not match the version of Petrel that you are using for your project, please do
these steps first:

1. Delete the imported seismic volumes (refer to the “Seismic volumes imported using old
plugin” section, page 6)
2. Uninstall the plugin (refer to the “Uninstalling old Petrel Plugins”, page 7)

We have separate Petrel pip files for Petrel 2018 to 2020. There are no pip file for versions that
we no longer support such as Petrel 2014. The pip files are located in C:\Program Files
(x86)\CGG GeoSoftware\HRS 10.6\PetrelIntegration\.

To install the HRS Petrel Data Plugin, you must have administrative rights to access the
C:\Program Files\Schlumberger\[your Petrel version]\Extensions directory. An example of [your Petrel
version] is Petrel 2019. If your administrator installs it for you, they need to install it using your user
name and credentials (after permitting your user name to access that directory) or install it for all users.

The Ocean Plug-in Manager


In Petrel, select File > Options > Plug-in Manager from the main menu.

Handling seismic volumes imported using the old plugin


HampsonRussell Petrel plugins are not backward compatible. Seismic volumes previously
imported using the old plugin need to be deleted and reimported. The seismic volumes can be
saved to SEG-Y format before deletion in case you need them (for use while the new plugin is
being installed or while waiting for help from us or your IT team).

Open Petrel. If Petrel is not open, a warning message will open when you try to delete the
volumes.

Delete the seismic volumes in Geoview.

Uninstall the old Petrel plugin (steps are on the next page).

Install the new plugin using the previous steps, pages 1 to 5.

Lastly, reimport the seismic volumes into Geoview.

If you have an obsolete version or your plugin version doesn’t match your Petrel version, you need to
uninstall the plugin. Open the Ocean Plug-in Manager. Uninstall Geoview Plugin and, if in the list,
also uninstall TwisterOcean.
