Oil & Gas Exploration Project Center

Simulates the full hydrocarbon exploration workflow — from basin analysis through drilling and appraisal — using play-fairway analysis, seismic-attribute/DHI detection, and basin/petroleum-systems modeling, evaluating the success probability of wildcat-drilling and formation-testing scenarios.
