3 Keys Benefits Of Using An Efficient Petrophysical Software

Petrophysical software

Petrophysics studies the properties of the rocks and fluids that exist beneath the earth’s surface. It plays a crucial role in exploration and extraction of oil and gas. The petroleum reserves could lie anywhere from a few hundred metres to 2-3 kilometres in the earth. This industry involves high cost, high labour and intelligent operations.

The introduction of petrophysical software has proved to be a turning point in the petrophysical industry. The innovative solutions have helped geoscientists and reservoir engineers understand the rock properties of the reservoir. It helps collect and analyse information on the lithology, porosity, water saturation, permeability and density of the rocks.

Here are three key benefits of using petrophysical software:

1. Saves costs and time – Before the advent of petrophysical software, the data was collected and recorded manually. Also a lot of time was lost from the data collection to data interpretation. Since the petrophysical software gives you detailed digital data with little manual intervention, a lot of time and also costs are saved.

2. Interactive data display – The software has an interactive user interface making viewing, editing and analysing data quick and hassle-free. The data is represented using graphs, charts, tables, curves, pie-charts etc.

3. Aids reporting and analysis – Traditionally the reports were largely manually made. Certain portions of the data, required for reporting and presentations only were graphically presented. You get the data real-time as well as historic records making it possible for quicker and more detailed analysis.
