Petrel has a lot of CRS (Coordinate Reference System) embedded in the main program. However, if your CRS is not listed, you must use a companion program called “Coordinate System Manager”. This program is in the windows menu -> Schlumberger – Petrel

1) Create your own CRS – Close and reopen Petrel to update the list – Define the new CRS
2) Start to import maps and WMS
