About Petrel Licensing Petrel 2014 requires a valid license. The license can be configured either locally on your computer or on a central license server. Petrel 2014 uses a combination of FlexeraTM FlexNet Publisher® licensing and a WIBU® CodeMeter® dongle. This provides a secure licensing solution. Note: This version of Petrel requires a Petrel 2014 license file. Licenses for this release are backward compatible with all previous release versions.
Note: For information about licensing, refer to the “ Schlumberger Licensing User Guide,” located in the Documentation folder of the Petrel installation files (for example, C:\Temp\Petrel2014InstallFiles\ Documentation).

Studio Deployment Overview
Studio Overview
The Studio E&P knowledge environment empowers a new level of usability and productivity that supports an E&P organization’s quest to streamline and optimize i ts
workflow across the asset lifecycle, while also capturing vital knowledge to maximize personal and team productivity. It features a powerful set of tools that allow geoscientists and engineers to access, review, and use information, all of this in the context of their workflows — providing three capabilities that increase productivity. Find your information
Studio lets you easily search and find all available information across multiple data sources in the context of your project and workflows. Using powerful search tools, Studio allows you to filter results based on specific criteria. These integrated workflows provide greater awareness and access, thus the required data is always available at your fingertips. Collaborate with your team
Studio supports collaboration along multiple dimensions that let team members publish interpretations and insights, sign up for notifications, utilize instant messaging capabilities to easily connect and communicate with team members and add virtual sticky notes to data. This provides greater context and understanding for making better decisions. Manage your knowledge
Studio provides a proven, scalable database supported by industry-standard technology (Oracle® and Microsoft SQL Server ®). Specifically designed to handle E&P project data as well as the knowledge related to that data, Studio stores both together in context. This provides unparalleled retention and reuse of the generated knowledge. Studio Deployment Overview
Deploying Studio in your environment enables data managers to define data environments comprising Petrel projects or databases across which users can search, view, and filter to find data using Studio. This section helps you identify the best deployment option to enable rapid searching, viewing, filtering, and loading information of interest. There are several deployment options:
Search across local Petrel projects This option enables users to search, filter, and load data into a Petrel environment from Petrel projects on a local machine. Every native Petrel 2014 installation provides this capability. For more information, refer to the Petrel Online Help.

Search across local Petrel projects and network data e nvironments This option enables users to search, filter, and load data from Petrel projects across the network for increased data awareness. This option requires configuration of data environments using the Studio Manager. For more information on configuring data environments and Stu dio Databases, refer to the Petrel Online Help and Studio Manager Online Help.
Search across local Petrel projects, network data environments, and Studio Databases This option enables users to search, filter, and load data in the Studio Database for maximum scalability and data awareness. This option requires deploying a Studio Database. A data manager configures the data environments and Studio Database using the Studio Manager. For more information on configuring data environments and Studio Databases, refer to the Petrel Online Help and Studio Manager Online Help.

Operating Systems and Hardware Selections Operating Systems
Petrel 2014 runs on the 64-bit version of Windows 7 o nly. Beginning with the Petrel 2014 release, Schlumberger Information Solutions retired support for the Microsoft® Windows XP, Microsoft® Windows Vista operating systems, and 32-bit platforms. Table 3-2 lists the supported operating systems for these versions. Table 3-2 Petrel 2014 Supported Operating Systems Operating System

Processors
Processor speed improves performance for these types of tasks: Large calculation tasks such as volume size, seismic attribute generation, property modeling, and upscaling
Adding information to the graphics board
For general Petrel use, a processor that meets the minimum recommendations is sufficient. For better performance, use the best available configuration (refer to Table 3-1). Several Petrel 2014 modules can benefit from multi-core processors. Table 3-3 Petrel Modules that Benefit from Multi-Core Processors Parallel and in the background

A multi-core processor 64-bit version of Windows 7 with service pack 1
When selecting a multi-core processor, consider the speed of Quick Path Interconnect (QPI) or Front Side Bus (FSB, old generations of Intel processor). The transfer rates affect main memory transfers, which affects overall system performance. Petrel Modeling Recommendations
Several modeling algorithms in Petrel 2014 take advantage of multi-core processing. Increasing the number of processors improves the run time of these algorithms. This current trend of converting algorithms to run in parallel will continue based on algorithm run time. Memory (RAM)
To run Petrel efficiently, Schlumberger requires at least 16GB of RAM and recommends at least 32 GB. The total system memory must be greater than the memory used by the application. This ensures that your operating system has dedicated RAM so that you do not need use your page file (disk memory). To estimate the required system size, follow these guidelines:
