KINGDOM <- GATEWAY -> PETREL
Loading data in Petrel can be a nightmare ! Particularly the provided toolbox which is supposed to help… So, I’m using kingdom to load all seismic profiles I need and then I transfer to Petrel using the Gateway. It’s really… KINGDOM <- GATEWAY -> PETREL
PETREL: how to merge horizons ?
Propagating horizons over large datasets can lead to multiple horizons . At some point you may realize that two different horizons are in fact the same. You don’t need to redo the propagation ! You can merge horizons. Expand both… PETREL: how to merge horizons ?
Duplicate trace found when loading sgy in Petrel or Kingdom
It’s very common to get this message when loading sgy data in Petrel. Don’t PANIC !!! It means that duplicate XY points were found either in sgy and/or in the nav file. Just remove them and try loading again. Here,… Duplicate trace found when loading sgy in Petrel or Kingdom
How to import 2D seismic in Kingdom
Importing 2D seismic profiles can be a nightmare. First of all, you must determine whether XY coordinates are embebbed in the sgy/segy file or not. You can use for instance seisee or segy detective to visualize binary headers (take a… How to import 2D seismic in Kingdom

An impressive old map of the Mississippi River dated 1944
The Mississippi River has the third-largest drainage basin in the world, exceeded in size only by the watersheds of the Amazon and Congo Rivers. It drains 41 percent of the 48 contiguous states of the United States. The basin covers… An impressive old map of the Mississippi River dated 1944
Petromod: How to define the position of a cross-section and related wells
Here is the process to define the position of a cross-section. You must know the XY coordinates of the left and right extremities of your profile. Here it is : X: 1614698.00 Y: 5693900.00 and X: 1651050.00 5 Y: 5661899.00… Petromod: How to define the position of a cross-section and related wells
Petromod: Adding Calibration data in wells
Calibration data in wells are not inputs for the model ! They are used to control the accuracy of the model once you run the simulation. Let’s take a look at the temperature. In Well Editor, click on “calibration data”… Petromod: Adding Calibration data in wells
Petromod: starting a project – Adding a well
Petromod is designed for modeling fluid generation and migration in sedimentary basins. So, the first step will be to create a directory for the project At the bottom of the window, click on the project button and select a folder.… Petromod: starting a project – Adding a well
