The grid is ready for simulation with no need to upscale cells or convert faults into stair-step mode.

This is an unstructured, cut-cell grid built on the premise of interpreted horizons and faults, which fully honors the reservoir architecture and enables complete facies and property modeling workflows by flattening zones to the time of deposition (i.e., depospace). Petrel 2018.1 delivers a new grid called Depogrid. Release highlights Modeling with Depogrid This unique framework makes workflows repeatable, provides the most comprehensive uncertainty assessment from seismic to simulation, and enables companies to standardize their decision-making processes from exploration to production, delivering unparalleled productivity. Since its first commercial release in 1998, the Petrel platform has been continuously developed to enable collaborative workflows with best-in-class technology and leading innovation, seamlessly integrating all subsurface disciplines in a shared earth environment.

The 2018.2 release marks the 20th anniversary of the Petrel E&P software platform.
