Petrel Introduction

This document provides an overview of using the Petrel software for geological and geophysical data interpretation and analysis. It describes importing 2D seismic data, well data, and base maps into a new Petrel project. It also demonstrates visualizing the seismic data through composite lines and converting to 2D seismic lines. Interpretation techniques like horizon and fault picking are shown. The key benefits of Petrel like 3D visualization, facies modeling, and simulation capabilities are listed.

Seismic Data Visualization

Right click on seismic line 


Create Interpretation Window

The seismic interpretation window


gives you a classic 2D view of the
seismic data. Inline, crossline,
composite lines and any type of
random lines, can be displayed in
the interpretation window. All
interpretation tools are available in
this window and the view can be
zoomed, stretched and squeezed in
either direction.
Seismic Data Visualization: Composite Lines

<--Start new composite line to draw more than one composite lines
Seismic Data Visualization: Composite Lines
1. Check following seismic lines
1981 D-81_Amplitude, 1981 B-81_Amplitude, 1981 A-81_Amplitude,
1981 27-81_Amplitude, 1981 16-81_Amplitude
2. Select orthogonal
view
2 3. Select composite
section

4. Select the lines to


be added into the
composite section
(become bold white),
double click when
you are done with
adding lines

5. Composite folder
will be created
automatically in the
input pane

Horizon picking
Right click on 1981 27-81_Amplitudes  Create interpretation window
Insert  New folder 

Right click
Insert seismic horizon
New horizon will be added
“Seisimic Horizon 1” and be
activated (bold) 
Click on  choose from
the following options

Interpret Grid Horizons [H]


Seeded 3D autotracking [Shift +A]
Seeded 2D autotracking [A]
Guided autotracking [G]
Manual interpretation [U]
Fault picking

Two ways to interpret faults:


• Classical interpretation (drawing fault segments) in the seismic interpretation
- flexibility of traditional interpretation
- clarity of fault planes triangulated in 3D

• Fault modeling directly on the seismic in 3D process


- ready for gridding as soon as the interpretation is complete.
- interpreter is forced to solve problems regarding fault hierarchy and connections
- no need for reinterpretation before fault modeling
