Schlumberger software platform customers gain access to leading geospatial information through integration with Spatial on Demand®

Spatial Energy announced an agreement with Schlumberger to provide on-demand access to high resolution satellite and aerial imagery, topographic maps and digital elevation models from Spatial Energy within the Petrel E&P software platform for the oil and gas industry.

Effective immediately, all clients of the Schlumberger Petrel* 2012.1+ release can access and use the vast archives of standard and premium geospatial content through Spatial on Demand® web mapping services from Spatial Energy.

The integrated capability enables Petrel 2012.1+ users to access information including global base maps, magnetics, global and regional bathymetry, seeps, reference data and more, import it directly into their Petrel projects, and use this key information to collaborate with peers on projects across the asset lifecycle.

“We are pleased to provide an easy, intuitive way for Petrel* platform clients to enhance contextual insight, from exploration to production, using this premier geospatial data set,” said Trygve Randen, vice president geoscience and drilling software, Schlumberger Information Solutions.  “Starting immediately, Petrel 2012.1+ users now have access to the Spatial on Demand web mapping service as part of the Petrel core license with no new licensing requirements.”

“Integration of surface and sub-surface data has become an integral part of the E&P process. Spatial Energy is delighted that this alliance with Schlumberger empowers a new level of usability, speed and productivity for geoscientists and engineers with direct import of surface information into Petrel 2012.1+,” said Bud Pope, President, Spatial Energy.

Users will be able to access geospatial data covered in their current Spatial on Demand® subscriptions while also being able to discover premium layers of data, which may be available at additional cost, all while staying inside their Petrel application and workflow.
