[OpendTect_Users] Exporting OpendTect data to Petrel

[Paul de Groot]

Hello Steven,

The connector plugin is an option but I am not sure if that is free for
Academia. (To be honest: I would be really surprised if it is.) Anyway, one
disadvantage is that the connector only facilitates copying of data files
between the two systems and not all data objects are supported.

At last week's SEG conference in Denver ARK CLS launched a new Petrel
plugin that allows direct access to OpendTect data stores without copying
data. GeoDataSync Accelerate (
http://dgbes.com/index.php/products/commercial-products/geodatasync-accelerate
) is a much richer product (i.e. it supports more data objects) than the
connector plugin. It also supports copying of data files both ways. This is
a commercial plugin that can be purchased only via dGB and ARK CLS. I am
not sure if Accelerate is free for Academia (*Adrian?*)

Finally, I know OpendTect has been used in Caves by others. Talking to your
IT people might be the simplest solution to your problem.

Best regards,

Paul.
